I see you zip tied it beside the power steering reservoir. Would you be able to just mount it below the coolant overflow tank. That way, it's just one bolt to remove for the tank to get to, and it would look a bit neater.

It says it now uses a Fram PH8A or equivalent, so I'm assuming you could use a K&N HP-3001 or Mobil One M1301?

I looked into a better place for this, but its pretty cramped in there. I did this mainly for the extra filter size, so I thought about mounting it on the engine crossbrace down below (driver side) above the cover. But then I thought how nice it would be to just grab it from above. The coolant resv. may work, but its still really tight. Zipties dont look so good, but I'm the only one who looks in there anyway.

Any filter cross referenced to the PH8A will work (3/4-16 thread). The PureOne is what I always use, so the 30001 was the equiv. of the PH8A. And yes, I bought the single-mount universal kit. There are about 5 different adapter threads in the kit that mount the block screw-on piece. You just have to find the M20x1.5 one and it threads right onto the motor. Good luck.
