How can I get swung 16th's for drums only? If I go to other system text and metric modulation all instruments are affected.

Write Swing in technique text on the drum line.

Agree with the first reply. Just make a direction for the drummer to play in swing style. I've personally never encountered a score during my time as a musician that ever did anything different.
