Re: PO has me PO'd
Sometimes you just have to grind the rolled edge off when the rivet wants to spin in the hole

Re: PO has me PO'd
Hi Jim I couldn't find those rivets so I purchased small stainless screws and nylocks and then I think later I found some small rivets but have not used them yet let me look tomorrow as for the foam it went out yesterday should be more than enough for 2 vents ....no worries about the postage you have done enough for folks on this board and typically with the pay forward position you take ....happy to help
Jess

Re: PO has me PO'd

Been pondering this problem for a while, tuner wants actual under hood temps.instead of manifold temps.So I need to make a bracket to hold the air sensor, problem is finding a nut for the sensor looks like NPT Never heard of npt nuts Original mud still on fire wall

Re: PO has me PO'd
What kind of air filter/ air intake are you going to use?
Seems unconventional to want under hood temps instead of intake temps. But, you could always drill and tap some thicker material to screw the temp sensor in |

Re: PO has me PO'd
Using a piece of 5/16" thick aluminum bar stock. Fabricate a "nut" shaped piece. Drill a proper size hole in the middle and tap the hole to fit the sensor.
