The valve's exit should always be parallel to the ground, but the lever may not always face upward.
An X-brace will not interfere with operation of the valve, as the X-brace is lower than the oil pan.

Blue threadlock! That's a good idea!

Thanks everyone!

I've done perhaps 25 track days, and hundreds and hundreds of autocross runs, with my Fumoto valve on the car, and there's never been a hint of a problem.
Same here. Never a problem.

My car is lowered. Less than a one finger gap.
