I can’t remember if mine turns easily with the filter removed, but I can tell you that the torque spec for the adapter bolt is 25 ft/lb (I don’t think it was listed in my installation manual).
As long as the the torque is adequate and the spacer is correctly oriented so that the o-rings are engaged I would think it should be fine, it should be pretty immediately apparent if anything is leaking. Hopefully someone can give more direct insight on the feel/movement of the plates.
