Re: moving oil filter..Don D. where are you !

[Ronald Nies <383man@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bob I always make a shield for the oil to run out in.  I use a piece of 
cardboard and stuf it under the filter.  I keep it tilted slightly downward 
and have the new filter where I can reach it.  Then my drain bucket is under 
the K-frame and the oil runs off the cardboard into the drain bucket and I 
put the new filter on while holding the cardboard there.   I am also a 
fanatic about keeping my eng bay and car clean and that works good for me. 
Mine also has the 440 that I put the SuperStock 426 ceacals on.  Ron
