My take on the Magnetic Oil Filter Housing

First I want to thank Tommy for donating me a housing to tinker with for this project. I used High Temperature magnets. Gluing them on was a tough and not without risk job in itself For one thing the little devils are slicker than snot on wax paper, the Cyanoacrylate did not have a good surface to hold onto. Next problem was after drying over night (I did one per night) the attraction was so strong the newly wet magnet would pull the previous one off and slam together splashing super glue everywhere. So I had to resort to using an accelerator or ester to make them stay in place. The next big job was finding triple wall heat shrink big enough to go around this and be tough enough to stand the rather hostile environment. I do not know how well it will hold up, time will tell the true story. I plan on doing my first oil change with Royal Purple this weekend and we will see.
