I'll just add a great mod i did was to to put in a fram SD-2 oil drain
never have to worry about striping that oil drain again untill the spring
loaded valve
fails but I bought 2 sd2 just for that day :)
1 small draw back the flange for the sd-2 fit almost too perfect into the
recess for the oil drain
so I had to dremel out the recess so that I can get a socket on the sd-2 but
now
its proud on the oil drain just the height of the brass dust cover just over
1/2"
so I am not concerned about it catching low ground ...
