Hey all,
I stumbled across this Fumoto "quick drain" valve that replaces your oil drain bolt for quicky, unmessy oil changes. With the LS tranny air scoop protecting it (particularly the "nipple" version), I think it'd be pretty legit. What do you all think?
Here's a video demonstrating its use:

*Edit: Okay I just saw Fat Boss' thread on the Fumoto but nobody chimed in on whether they really liked it or not. My question now is if there'll be enough clearance for the nipple (or non nipple) version with the LS tranny air scoop since I know it runs pretty close to the oil pan.
Additionally I'm confused about this step
"Hook up vacuum to the crank case, remove oil pan plug, install Fumoto." Not sure how he installed the Fumoto without the drain bolt spilling a bunch of fluid out... He clearly made some kind of vacuum, just no idea how?
