I use Motorcraft FL1As. Pressure builds within a second of cold start 

Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!

You bet it's an issue. The mann w917 never set the oil pressure light at startup except maybe a nanosecond. These blackies are no darn good. One other time I used an off-brand filter and also encountered the oil pressure light staying on at startup 4for 2-4 seconds. 2-4 seconds is too long for me.
Good luck,
Marty

No problem building oil pressure on this setup, ever.
The early white blocks had spin on filters that were vertical. So they didn't drain back. I didn't look at the mann catalog but maybe that is what they gave you? After all it read volvo in the listing.![]()
Which part is a tight fit? I'm not familiar with the dimensions, but the W917 is a tight fit to the alternator on all my 240s (even with denso alt) to the point that i have to disconnect the battery to change oil.
Maybe your interference with with the downpipe due to the relocation arm.
