Fuel and oil caps are cool, But kinda of a pain to change filters, maybe I am wrong. Look awesome though

thanks, ..........the caps came from pdi performance or from their ebay store, here is there direct # 305-218-1486, tell them aaron sent you as i have sent them many customers, and maybe they will give you the same pricing on the 2 caps and the oil filled fuel psi guage as they gave me which was $150 with free priority shipping, also everything is american made even the guage, the caps fit great.............and yes it will be a little more challenging to change filters but as long as i can monitor the oil and fuel i do not mind breaking it all down to change the filters when it needs to be done.

I like the looks of all that work. Nice job. What is more difficult about changing the filters with the new caps?

thanks.................................i have a fuel psi guage plumbed into the top of the fuel filter cap and i have a oil psi sensor plumbed into the top of the oil filter cap and this has to be dissasembled to change the oil and fuel filters, that is what i meant when i said it will be challenging to change filters.

yes a quick disconnect would be very nice, do they make them for this type of application? in 1/8" pipe threads?
