Bump
Anyone install an Earl’s 504 on a Gen6? They included a 7/8” spacer to fit in the oil filter recess on the pad, but no hardware to make up the difference. Wtf?
Theyre owned by Holley these days so support is miserable.

I had to use one of these on my block to get my thermostat to mount. I really like my thermostats they cleaned up my rigging immensely.

I use a 504 and if I'm not mistaken the 504 has the blue ring for use with Mark 4 blocks where the filter pad is recessed. I think you needed the 503 for a Gen 6. They don't use that spacer. Probably uses the same thermostat but might be a different union in there, not sure. But don't need the blue ring for a gen 6. Not sure that blue spacer ring even mates right to a Gen 6 filter pad. You got 7/8" more space than you thought you had!
