When I initially filled the oil after building and installing the engine and full flow filter. I poured 1 qt of oil in the filter (on the bench) then screwed it onto the adapter. I poured 1 1/2qts. into the engine to fill the 1 1/2 qt. aftermarket sump then I poured the 5 1/2 pints in the engine, th...

I mounted my filter on the back of the battery box, it's out of the way and easy to get to.

Does it have the twisted flatstock body mounts from the top rear shock mounts? I have only seen the twisted mount with 3 mounting hole on original Manx bodys. http://www.manxgallery.org/gallery/albums/album224/REAR_BODY_MOUNT.sized.jpg http://www.manxgallery.org/gallery/albums/Building-my-orange-Man...

Does it have the twisted flatstock body mounts from the top of the rear shock?

The one he is looking for has a 4" diameter screw on cap. The one you have pictured is about 1 1/4" diameter.

I have recently noticed that there are a few chrome shops advertising that they chrome plastic. I can only imagine the cost.

Those are available from boat shops. It's a 4" Deck plate for a boat. The problem is, they don't make chrome ones anymore. And the grip to unscrew it, is now recessed.
