Maybe Wix 57521 ?????
????? means i quickly looked this up. It's your motor, so double/triple check. :)

HP6A specs/dimensions : FRAM HIGH PERFORMANCE High Performance Spin-on Oil Filter HP6A FRAM

Wix filter look up via specs/dimensions: Catalogs

Rob, I have some nice horizontal remote mounts I would sell you, then length would not be an issue. Has the nice bracket with engine lift points. Let me know if you're interested.

Now that its in the boat, I think if I trim the spacers holding the bracket off the head a bit, it will fit.......

Then I should be able to get filters on and off easily.
