Fumoto Oil Drain Valve on an sh

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone here has used the Fumoto oil drain valve on an sh. I only ask because there isn't much room between the oil pan and the atts unit and I want to see if anyone who has used it had any clearance issues.

Thanks everyone in advance.

The thing about that valve is that it will hang down and you risk catching it on a large speed bump then there goes all your oil.

Yep I have done research on it, its one of those things that will work great until that one day..

Make no mistake, it HAS happened. Do you want that kind of risk? I don't.

Only time I've actually seen them used is when some hack has been changing the oil and strips out the threads on the pan and this is the band aid slapped on it.
