Slobber can. Fix's the oil soaked air filter cheap! All it takes is a an old oil quart bottle or I used a 20 ounce pop bottle, and a about 6-8 inches of rubber hose and A few clamps. I dremaled out a hole big enough for the hose in the lid and poked a few breather holes so the crank case can vent. Then close off the back with what ever method you deam useable. Sorry no pics and whenever it needs dumped out simply unscrew the cap and pull the bottle ad pour it out. No more oil soaked filter!

How much oil does it catch?

Da no yet just drove it around the block after putting a thermostat in it I'm driving it to work tomarrow but I'm glad to not have an oil soaked air filter. I'll report after my 15 mile trip to work though

My grenade already had a hole in the bottom so I opened it up with the 5/8 bit, this should slide into the shifter stick now.
The grenade has a "Handel/top" I unscrewed this from the body then used the 3/8 bit to drill from the bottom all the way through this creates a hole for the shell

Next the little white piece in the Handel should have a node on the top, this is what I shoved the shell onto.
Put it together and that's it.
A set screw would be recommended to hold it to the Handel secure

Just updated. App isn't working for pictures

If u have the beefier hinge, u cut the bottom ear off and the door slides off. On the passenger side, u have to drive out the pin and flip it to point down. Then undo the 9 wiring harnesses under the doors. Just go on google for some clearer writeups. Dremel with lots of little cutter wheels worked best for cutting hinge.

Or a grinder with a cut off wheel. There is a thread in the how to section
