In preparation for an engine rebuild, I wanted to get myself up to speed on drilling/tapping the oil galley plugs.
Search revealed conflicting information about whether all should be removed and tapped or just the five big ones. What's the current school of thought on this? Also, what size plugs and drill/tap will I need. Thanks! http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=103988&hl= |
