What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

Today, in preperation for installing my Dougs headers, I removed my 90* oil filter adapter and installed my oil filter relocation kit. Also changed the oil, 20w50 Royal Purple HPS. Hopefully doing that will have also eliminated the oil leak I have (I'll see over the next week or so after I clean the engine and hit a quarter car wash that costs more like $10). The old gasket was a real bear to scrape off and it took about an hour. Maybe I should take yoga or something. Next weekend, I will need to install my mini-starter, and I'll be ready to go.

Parts I needed to buy were;
Canton oil filter plate

Crown Automotive oil filter adapter connector

Summit oil filter relocation kit

Currently the oil filter is in a not-so-great spot for the length of hose I have. I may either get more hose, or re-locate the filter. not sure yet. It's hard to see, but the hose does not hit the exhaust manifold.
