I was going to weld a 1/2" npt thread weld fitting on the top of the oil filter housing as I don't have the room by the distributor, plus I just moved my oil presure guage fitting there. I still don't understand why that wouldn't be ok as they do make -10 to 3/8 npt fittings. I have a couple in my fitting drawer and they look perfectly adequate to me. Another thing to keep in mind is the feed hole on the block for the oil filter housing isn't any larger.
