Hi:
I looked and looked but could not find the post about which threaded pipe plugs to use for the oil galley in the front of the block.
Went to clean the block and then went daaaaa think I ought to do this after drilling and tapping the thing
All I could find at the hardware store were set screws, not NPT pipe plugs and the NPT pipe plugs they did have had a head on them, not a allen socket.
Looks like one of the galley plugs will need to be very carefully (shallow) because of the way the oil passage meets the galley - it is close to the surface.
Any thoughts on drilling a small hole in one of the plugs to provide some oil to the timing set?
TIA
