I will preface these next ones by saying I know nothing is a substitute for frequent oil and filter changes. I had similar types of the following products on my last car and I still think it's good piece of mind for not that much $.

1. I want to get a neodymium magnetic oil drain plug/bolt. I've been told the OEM bolt on the Corvette is M12X1.75X25mm and I assume the Camaro is the same. Is that a safe assumption?

I read mention of these on a Corvette forum: PowerSlut Racing (yes that's the real name ) & DIMPLE/Drainplugmagnets.com. The latter people were saying is more expensive but engineered really well. Anyone have experience with these?

2. I also had an oil filter magnet by FilterMag, hopefully the one I had on my 370Z works but I have a feeling the Camaro's will be much larger. Drainplugmagnets.com has their own solution too.

They also have some complete kits for some cars and bikes like this one for the Hellcat that covers the trans, diff & engine oil, is there some GM software people have to see what the dimensions of these bolts are on our cars without ordering them or taking them off first?:


If you aren't aware of what are supposed to be the benefits here is what it says on their page:.


By the way if you are interested Drainplugs.com is in PALM COAST, FL. (between Jacksonville & Orlando). Maybe we can get them to make a kit.
I am going to look into this as I live in Palm Coast.
