NA oil filler neck swapable on T2 with FMIC?

Should be an easy question.

Will an NA oil filler neck fit on a t2 with a greddy fmic kitt? If anybody has any measurements on how tall the actual neck is from where it mounts on the block. I think I remember seeing a picture or 2 but cant seem to find them. It would be alot cleaner than the stock t2 one that bends the way it does now that the TMIC is out of the way.

Thanks.

It's going to be close.
Why do you want to do that anyways?
The NA one is like 6" straight up!

I have an N/A one on mine but not with the greddy kit.. you should be able to tell just by looking at it. the N/A one goes straight up. so look straight down and see if the TB thing is in the way.

Ok cool. We'll I'm trying to make it look cleaner and also the new rotor oil cap I have interferes with my strut bar.

EDIT: theoretically if the NA oil filler tube clears the tb adapter and pipe nothing else would hit it correct? I mean it's location is the same on an NA and shouldnt hit the hood or anything right?

If you still care, the n/a oil filler neck is ~6.25" from where it starts coming out of the block to the top of the oil filler neck cap fully screwed in.

What about a GSL-SE oil filler neck? Its about 2-2.5 inches shorter than the FC NA filler neck. I have one if you want to try it out.

No problem. You can have the oil filler neck if it fits.
