Right, got a 4-1 manifold that needs to go on, but need to relocate the oil filter.

GMC don't do the oil relocation kits anymore, so had to buy a mk1 oil filter and thread to block hole.

Stupid question: Do I have to remove the manifold heat shield to access this?Does anyone have any pics of exactly where it is on an mk2 vtr?

citroen say it's an easy job and gave me a diagram but its of a mk1 engine and doesnt really help me too much.

Any help would be mocho appreciatio.

Best just to do it when you are changing the manifold over, as you need to remove the complete oil filter housing thing and it would be really awkward.

It's pretty straight forward but you are left with a small hole that you will need to block with something. If you have the tools i would thread it and screw a bolt in.
