Stroking an engine means putting a crank shaft with a longer throw to move the piston further up and down in the cylinder creating more displacement of the engine

Oil filter position

i just swapped out engines but my new to me h.o engine's oil filter was positioned at a vertical angle instead of horizontal. will this effect my oil pressure at all or should i move it down?
