3. im sure the mfg looked at all possible avenues for a potential lawsuit in the R&D stage, and had they found somethign bad im sure they wouldnt have marketed it and wasted time and money

thats nice...but for those among us who like to keep things bone stock....some call them purists




But I'm not flaming anyone on this TO EACH HIS OWN

You won't regret it. It greatly facilitates oil changes. Additionally, it makes oil changes a lot easier to perform without getting dirty.

The nipple is parallel with the oil pan so it doesn't stick down. It is the little spigot arm that sticks down. Shoulda got the nipple one
