Newb Oil Filter Question

I’m currently removing my TTI headers and going with Sanderson DD9’s. This will allow me to run the filter straight to the block.

I did buy a Mopar Performance Aluminum 90 adapter, flat sanded for better sealing but will not install it now.

I’m not removing the headers strictly for the oil filter issue…on these early A-body cars there is simply no room for anything with full length headers.
