Just want to keep it simple and cheap. I got an aluminum fitting in mine that seams to have welded itself to the manifold. I cant get it out and Ive destroyed the fitting trying. Unless someone has some advice I'm giving up :banghead: Thanks for the offer but I would like to find one local.

Aluminum drills like butter, drill it out until close to the hole size, then get a pipe tap and chase the threads, 20 minutes tops, an hour if you have to go borrow/buy a tool to tap the threads with.... ;)

I have a small oval port Edelbrock Performer 2.0 you can have for $30 plus the ride if you fail.... 8)
