That's great to hear! I was a little skeptical so I opted to not get one
but now that I hear your experience I might go for it! Did you get the
N-type? Are there any clearance issues? The reason I ask is, On the
4.7's, if you have the factory skid plates you have to remove one of the
plates to change the oil (yeah. it's a pain in the arse!!!). I thought
the N-type would be nice then I could just attatch a hose to the outlet
and not even THINK about the skid plate!
