Oil filter change question
Question on how hard is it to change the oil filters on 350 small blocks in a 272LS with through hull exhaust? Getting parts together to put the motors back in and considering going with the remote oil filter kits. Would add about $100 to the project cost. Doesn't seem like much, but everytime I turn around it is another $50 to $300.
AND YES I KNOW WHAT BOAT STANDS FOR!!!!!
sorry for yelling
Feedback? Do you curse and swear everytime you change them? Do you change them every time? Never thought about that, good large filter seems odd to change it every 30 to 50 hours, but that is how long people run before changing oil it seems.
Thank you,
Brian

I would also order a couple of ez drain oil kits, this was you can just pull them threw the drain hole no more mess in the bilge!!

Much easier just to get a jabsco oil drain pump.

Where can you buy the remote mounting kits? If you buy that stuff from Mercruiser, it is almost $100 for each oil line, and the adapter that bolts to the block is like $350! And thats just for one motor!
