Great stuff Andrew! Looks like I'm late to this party, look forward to seeing it at RRE this year!

Maybe someday I'll get on this mod band wagon... Some day.

Yep the motor will be out. Do you have a pic or link to equivalent one by any chance, just so Im sure the style is correct. Something like this?

Was there a pic of this Glenn?

Andrew, that looks like the same one I used. Mine is a thick plastic handle, but otherwise shaped and looks just like that one. Like I said, the handle is removable on mine to use a wrench on the shaft, and that one probably is too, but I didn't use it that way much. Just cranked the handle down.

BTW, progress is looking good!

I made my oil drain pretty similar to that, except I made mine a very slight press fit and didn't use any sort of o-ring.
