I hate top mounted spin on oil filters! What a mess to change even if it somehow catches the oil. I wonder why they didn't use a cartridge type oil filter in that location. Also the spark plugs still look like a nightmare to get to. Also, why cover the top of the motor with a plastic cover. Maybe there is nothing in the valley to service??

I do like that it is a non emissions motor. It may be a good one!

looks like a nice package
poke a hole in the top of the filter let it drain before removing it

Had that been available, I might have gone with that instead of the 4.3 Duoprop in my B20.

Boat test did a marketing advertisement, I mean test on it too. Sounds like a promising little powerplant.
