How does one remove the long oil filler tube and cap on the intermediate
housing and replace them with a very short one? Are they screwed in or
pressed in? Thank you, Yvon.


They are pressed in I think. Tracy, as I recall, said he stuck a pipe in
it and he wiggled
it back and fourth until it loosen and came out. I have seen others cut
them off
and weld a shorter piece on.

They are press fit, mine just fell out, must have been removed before I got
the engine.
