jono Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 One of my least thought about repair jobs. Saw the problem, grabbed a few bits and tools and into it. Cold chisel to belt out on the flange.... drilled 8.5 mm hole, think it was the 28 you bspt tap and screwed in the 45° elbow. Just needs a short barb to finish the job off....and just hope it clears the inlet manifolds underbelly 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czny Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Did the same thing a few yrs ago - clears SPFI intake manifold just fine with hose barb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jono Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 I saw Gannon's repair using 1/16" size stainless. I got the impression he had to reach deep into his pockets for the bits and taper tap. I thought if I stuffed up a reducer bush in the block may have been a ticket out of it. Good to hear others doing this. Used to be a fear of these problems in old Subes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
