Please tell me there is another way

Not familiar with an "in-line oil filter".
Is it something like this? http://www.bellengineering.net/produ...roducts_id=717
The stock system works fine or are you hoping to use the in-line setup to avoid removing the exhaust?

While I am not totally familiar with them myself, I was thinking something more along the lines of this http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?prod=81-1000
25 micron instead of 50. That said, Im not sure if there are other ones that do more yet. I was hoping for either that solution or something that uses say a long filter from a KTM as they are small and relativelly cheap, and I have them in abundance.

To be honest, I had hoped somebody may have found a filter that fits into the stock location that is thin enough, but the same length as the stocker, to fit between the header.

All of that asside, I probably will run something like the K&N inline when I go to an oil cooler... once I find one. I will however retain the stocker of course and learn to love removing my headers as is the case with most of you fine gentlemen.
