Be careful about engine oil quick drains on LIV's There is minimal clearance with the nose landing gear in the retracted position. Most quick drains will not work on the TSIO 550E3's without contacting the nose gear and draining all the oil shortly after takeoff (not a good thing). Make sure you do a retract test after installation to be sure there is no problem. There is a low profile Piper part numbered quick drain that will work but is a little pricey.
