Hmm, I wonder if the Blackhawk filter will fit in the standard kit.

I am going with the Blackhawk filter for now. That resolves the oil issue without much work or expense.

My other concerns with the system are minor.

I called a few junkyards and only one actually understood what I wanted. $250, Once I get hardware and other bits its probably closer to $300. I am sure the Pic&Pulls are cheaper but around here if you find a part like that its smashed to bits by idiots trying to get to something else.

I would not object to an even trade with all the hardware if your close by.
