OK how many times do you need to touch the hot burner before you figure its hot. How many times do you need to see the oil galley plugs come loose and leak before you do something about it. Way back in the 70s on the stock bug cases I saw the oil plugs leaking, Then I started to see the 411 style blocks with the same problem. Now I have seen the plugs on the waterboxer block get loose and leak so what do I do about it. I drill and tap the block so there is no chance of this happening to one of my customers engines that I build. Also then the plugs are out the oil galleys can be cleaned with a bore brush. Do I do it just to make money? I do it so that when they are on vacation the plugs won't get loose and leak and blow out, when they are out to have some fun. Just something to think about. Or will your engine builder just smear some JB weld over the plugs. He must know that they can and do leak so why band-aid them when they can be drilled and tapped and repaired right. Has your engine builder installed the plugs?? [email protected]
