Vintage Speed has an option for a spin-on filter, and they are about the best you can buy. Spendy, but worth if.

The better solution would be to ditch the silly spin-on filter, and do a real full flow filter setup. Then you can get the metal oil filter away from the super hot exhaust, have easy filter choices, you are able to add an in line oil cooler, and you won't have sky high oil pressure from the huge oil pump they usually come with.

Now is the time to do it the correct way while its apart.

A conventional 1 3/8 header with single quiet pack will work/clear. Any of the VW of Mexico style all in 1 headers wont work....

I know a lot of people don't want to believe it but a filter pump IS a full flow system. Even VW did it near the end of Type 1 production. And it doesn't require routing hoses around and creating more places for leaks to develop.

The problem is its proximity to the muffler. In traffic it's can heat soak. And on Long Island there's plenty of traffic.
They also have small passages and sharp 90* bends.

90° bends? Think

The passage is much larger than the ones in a filter pump.

Compare the size of the passages in the filter pump to the passage in the case.

The Berg cover has a larger opening and from there its AN-8 hose and returns directly to the case.

And the filter is not between the case and the muffler.

The engine case itself has nothing but sharp 90* bends.

There is nothing wrong with "filterpumps" as long as they get a little tlc before installation. Just donīt use that Empi/Bugpack or whatever pump with a built in overpressure valve like the one shown just above. Gears are too large and it will bypass 25% of the oil most of the time. Just donīt use them on engines that see 5500+ rpms on a daily basis.

The heat sok issue was apparently not enough for VWoM & Brazil to consider it a problem, and both have pretty coozy climates.

Personally I would rather have a couple of extra 90 degree bends than run one of those stupid cast iron Berg pump covers that crack all the time.

Weird, mine is 25 years old and isn't cracked.

And the factory did many compromises over performance.

I have replaced probably 20 of those in my time. All cracked in one place or the other.
If you want a pump plate that will live forever almost no matter the enviroment, use some UHB11 steel or maybe Rigor.
Sprayed cast iron is dirt cheap, but it has the wrong expansion rate compared to magnesium/aluminium and it gets brittle over time

The CB filter pump works great, most of the problems are mental.
The design of the cover plate is superior to most because it is stiff and stable over the high pressure side of the pump.
Although we do share some concerns the passages are restrictive....I suspect that the filter usually has a air bubble in it and that may help to dampen pressure pulsations.

Except when you try to put the pulley tin on and it rubs against the pulley.

Everyone i've installed required some of the cover to be ground off.

You're making reference to the 1971 convertible with the thin wall 1835cc DP engine, external oil cooler, single 40DCNF, vintage German 009, vintage Claude's Buggies Maxi2 !

The 1970 hasn't had that 1845cc engine it it and running since 1993, then it sat 23 years, and now has the rebuilt 1600cc DP engine that was originally in the '71 convertible. So that one is pretty much stock (for a 1971 engine) except for the Maxi2, vintage German 009, Brazilian Solex 30/31 PICT, and exhaust.

Both use lid stand-offs.

My CB Maxi-2 filter pump had around 10 mm oil channels in it when I got it. I ran a 7/16" drill the length of the ports to clean them up, which is close to 11 mm. There is plenty of metal to do this. I also put a slight radius at the 90 degree turns near the gears. The engine case oil ports are 10mm, so I am not worried about it being a restriction. I would worry more about oil hoses with clamps coming loose, or getting burnt. Also the air from the sled tins is blowing over the filter on its way to the exhaust, so I don't believe that the exhaust is going to heat up any oil. The oil temp I believe would also be higher ( when hot ) than the air coming off of the cylinders.

Agreed. Many miles and no problems here with a CB Performance Maxi Pump, or whatever they're called. Oil pressure is good, and not too high. Plus it fits excellent with the 49 state fuel injection exhaust... not sure I'd use it with the Cali Cat. exhaust.

Maybe me being ocd, but anytime I run oil lines close to exhaust I use heat sleeves on the lines and heat shield armor on the exhaust pipe on the side that's radiating heat on the oil. I'd likely have heat sheild armor around the area of the filter just to keep unnecessary heat from working it's way into the oil filter. Those unfamiliar with it, it's not a full wrap that destroys your pipes, only requires 3/4 wrap secured with metal zip ties or hose clamps. I used it in certain areas on my sidewinder near full flow lines and towards my bus rear apron just to keep radiant heat from absorbing into the engine bay through the tins and panel where it's close enough to burn paint.
