Do you have another photo showing the plumbing after all the oil lines into, out of the engine, remote filter mount and oil cooler were set up?
The brand of thermostat is a Mocal model #SP1T. This one only opens if the oil temp exceeds 220 degrees. The plumbing is straight forward. I do not use a remote adapter but I do use a System 1 reusable filter. The oil circulates through its normal channels in the engine. If oil temps. exceed 220 the thermostat opens partially, depending on temp., to help maintain it at 200 - 220 degrees but not exceeding the 220 limit.

Take a look at this link posted by RedBarchetta last year, its a good overview.
