I like the idea of the bigger filter. I think the diesel filter does much
the same thing.

Does anyone have any trepidations about a longer oil filter hanging down
below the engine and being in the line of fire from rocks, beer cans, and
homeless people's head's??

Not sure how sturdy the oil filter really is. Just wondering.
