prime-loc relocation kit

Anyone know of a shop that might have some of these left in stock? Or a good substitute?
I tried Geno's but theyve been out for awhile apparently =(
Im half tempted to try to get some bits and pieces to try to relocate it myself. Its just a couple banjo's there, right? Id need some kind of blind double-banjo with a threaded end or something like that. Could possibly make something with a bit of careful drilling.

Call 570-875-2620 and ask for part #PL 9496. I have one and really like the unit as a whole. But it is a slight pain when wanting to slide your plate.

Prime-Locs are a waste of money and just get in the way. That's probably the reason Geno's quit selling them.

The trick to making the fuel filter on your '95 very easy to change is to remove the two nuts that hold your brake master cylinder to the booster. Even though it doesn't look like it the master will then swing way out of the way toward the driver's side giving you a ton of room to work.

If you still want one I know at least five people who have Prime-Locs they have removed after learning this trick who would be very happy to get rid of them.

I just might actually. Since Im doing the conversion to run veggie oil I need to be able to plumb in connectors on either side of the filter so I can bypass it and run my own exclusively for the vegoil stuff.
I was thinking it would be a hell of a lot easier to do if I could relocate the stock filter someplace easier to get at
Another way Im looking at doing it is the quick and cheap method of just running it through the stock filter, but adding some means to heat it electrically just in case any residue gels in there, along with a back flush mechanism that pushes some diesel behind it and into the vegoil tank.
Know of any other cheap ways to get all the hoses and connectors Id need to plumb around that filter?
