[Shotimes] Rod shifter/exhaust question

[Mike.Wojton@us.o-i.com]

The drain plug has not been an issue for some people.  I had
an SS pipe on my previous car.  I had a shop weld it in, and they
may have adjusted clearance for the plug.  I realized I had not
changed the plug before I took it to the shop, and was afraid
I'd never get the plug out again, but didn't have any trouble.
I did put the shorter plug in though, because, well, I DID pay
for it afterall.  ; )
