What Will The Oil Filter Be Like ?

Classic metal case ?

Plastic and paper inside engine block housing ? (Ala Ecotec 2.2 from GM)

something completely different ?

Inquiring minds want to know

I have not heard anything, but I imagine it will be classic metal case??? Everything is supposedly off the shelf parts and is touted as easily to do your own maintenance.

Standard spin on filter, screwed in horizontal.

Standard size screw-in .

Agreed! That's the dumbest way to mount an oil filter. Definitely a 90 deg. adapter, or a relocation mod...throw a small oil cooler on there while you're at it.

Wonder if they include the sandwich adapter? A thermostatically controlled front mounted oil cooler might not be a bad idea to keep the little cutie cool.

Will the spark plugs be located under the intake? Hopefully you won't have to remove the intake to change plugs like you do on some vehicles..
Will the intake be plastic on the new prototype (P5)?

Oops. Just seen the plugs in one of the above photos.. Looks like easy access!
