I bought this kit (http://www.blueovalindustries.com/pr...p?pid=99013004) for my 06 GT and my wifes 07 V6 Convt. I emailed the company after the fact because the ad mentions its for a GT only. They e-mailed back and said that kit would not work on a V6, well they were wrong, sort of. EVERYTHING fit except the OIL handle. I verified/compared all part numbers from my 06 GT to her 07 V6 and all numbers were the same. Well, onto the handle, I have included pics of how I made it work. Drill bit used was 1/16.

You're my type of guy...if it doesn't fit, "persuade" it.....

Nice work!

Looks good, but until I find a way to keep under my engine clean, it aint gonna happen.

FYI: The first time we cleaned them, it took about2 hours. Now its about 15-30 minutes every Saturday morning and they stay remarkably clean this way. We also live in Texas (Far North Fort Worth, Keller actually)

I guess it's just because everytime I go to clean it, it's raining. Just need to get some time.

Just a note, in the winter Shelby Performance Parts catalog, They now have a set of the Scott Drake billet caps made specically for the 4.0L V6. It includes a different design on the oil handle, presumably to make installation easier on the 4.0L

is it ok to spray under the hood with the hose. or do you need a special cleaner? how do you guys clean yours?

Torch_Vert

Cover the air filter if you have an exposed one (CAI kit, etc) and then go at it with the hose.

I use Orange Blast degreaser on a cool engine. Let that sit for about 20 min, hose it off and let the water dry. Turns out great.

Personally I go under the hood with a wet rag and wipe down everything by hand. No reason to risk spraying anything you shouldn't. And I get to know my engine a lot better this way.

i want to clean my engine also but spraying it down still makes me a bit nervous.[&:]
