SCSI hard drive magnets around the stock drain bolt works wonders and it is free (if you have a **** ton of old hard drives laying around)

How much would people pay for magnets? I do not even care about the money. I can get as many as I want.

you could just put a magnet on the oil filter OR an even better option is to use the WIX performance glass oil filter for our cars. they are more expensive at 9 dollars a piece but they filter out to 10 microns vs the 25-30 for stock. If its smaller than 10 microns it probably wont hurt you. A filter magnet however traps it in the filter your going to throw away anyways.

Every time magnets come up, I spend about half an hour at K&J Magnetics. Neodymium utopia.

After that:
