Good suggestions! Thanks. We'll see what I have time for. I did not have time for anything last night, so that leaves tonight to do the maintenance and mods!
I do not think the grill block cam be any bigger. The entire lower grill is blocked off leaving only the 'mail slot' up top. We'll see if what I have is too much for freeway driving. I have a feeling it might be.

Neato idea. I typically don't really bother to fill all the way to 'full' when I do an oil change. If its halfway up the empty/full area, I'm good with that. I don't think that would make too much difference as I highly doubt the crank is passing through the oil. Perhaps I'm wrong though? Less oil does mean less oil to heat up though, and that would be beneficial.
As for the filter, I don't think I'd like to go smaller. I'll just be using the OE size filter.
