The rear exhaust pipe is way different. The whole exhaust is different. You
will have to remove the oil cooler or use a shorter filter.

Subject: Oil Filter

I'm putting a 2.1 l engine in my '85GL. Upon installing the exhaust I made a
interesting discovery - the rear cross over pipe is a interference fit with
the oil filter. The question is are the cross over pipes that different, did
the P.O.of the 2.1 have the wrong oilfilter installed, or did I do something
wrong?
