 Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

tbh benross i don't know much about them, assuming they are standard water plumbing fittings but i was told that they have an odd thread size or something.. i might look into them though..

there made of cast all you need then is a 1/4" bsp tap 2nd tap .....and a drill for the large holes 11.2mm then tap

for the small holes on the block 1/8" bsp tap and a 8.4mm drill

it may be better to use hex plugs as i do and fit these flush ore a little under the deck height depending, if you are having the block decked ?
