I've setup everything so a normal service can be done from the doghouse because of how far back the engine sits. The only thing I'll have to lift the hood for really is coolant, power steering (remote reservoir), brake fluid, battery and air filter, which are easily accessible. The only thing I'm going to have to relocate in the future is the oil filter. As for right now the intake tubing has to come out to get to it. But on the up side, I put the industrial oil pan on it so the system holds roughly 20+ quarts and has a aux port for additional filtering systems. Won't know the exact amount until I run it and get it on level ground. Amsoil makes a good bypass filter system with two huge filters that mount to the frame and take oil from an oil port (either on the filter housing or from the pressure sensor port) and feed it through the filters and back to the oil pan. Big benefit is the increase in oil change intervals.

As a word of caution concerning the Amsoil bypass system. There have been issues with failures to work properly, needless to say that's of huge concern if true.
I've sent a link via PM to another site where this is discussed---might be a good read.
Still VERY impressed with your progress here---massive respect!
Whoops---can't send a PM, might not have that option enabled? Left the link in your visitors message area----hope it's helpful.

Excellent Craftsmanship in every aspect.....
In my opinion I would cut the floor out and make some kind of Mini Me doghouse that connects to the Exhisiting one....You are choking the engine just like the Flat downpipes on the OBS....but unless you can move the Turbo forward you will have Flow Issues Issues with your current configuraton.....remember everything after the Turbo outlet is irrelevant power wise...And I believe the green color is Kawasaki Racing since I have 3 of them ....and it looks real close.....
Keep up the excellent work
