Did some reading about this, not sure what most guys are doing, but I think it would be useless because the flywheel would be a much stronger magnet. Anyone have an opinion on this?

where are you supposed to put the magnet? (the oil filter magnet, not the S&M member)

the filter sits inside the case, I can't see how there would be room for one?

Well there is a company that sells magnetic oil filter covers, also I believe it is hiflo sells a magnet that looks like a washer and it sits on the filter between the filter and cover. I dont think I will run one though, just wondering if anyone was and if it actually caught anything.
