Tip for those wanting 2.7L header
ive had my lc engineering header now for about three months and have been very pleased with its perfomance, looks, and sound. But today i found out the very bad thing about it. changing the oil with this header is hard as hell. its nearly impossible to find a good reach to unscrew the old filter and just as hard to get the new one set up too. if i hadnt had my rubber filter wrench i dont think i every would have got it off. i had to stand on my bumber reach down in the engine bay and just barely found enough room to loosen it. i thought the tacoma was sort of a tricky oil change before, but now its rediculous. i think next time i change it im going to get a relocation kit. just a tip for everyone wanting this header. very pleased with it otherwise.

my downey header is the same way, i think toyota was stupid about the placement of that filter, along with the starter and fuel filter being next to each other
