Question XR Top Caps
Does anyone use the Billet Marine XR top cap/shower unit? They claim its 300 % stronger and cools the oil by 40* or more.

It sounds like I would need a drive shower to use yours. Would the shower over my stock cap fit over the cap that you sell?

we use simerik showers with these caps,if you were using something else you might have to use longer studs.
