PCV port on Inlet Manifold

Hey guys,

I'm just wondering what I need to block off the port for the PCV on the A-spec inlet manifold?

Thanks!

what size bolt trav? do u remember?

mat, if you can unscrew it, take it to a bolts/fasteners place and they'll find you one that is the right size

then just put some teflon tape on it and screw it back in

That was my first though, but the thread is "itty bitty tiny" (that's a technical term) and you'll be hard pressed to find a bolt that large with such a thread.

If you've got the manifold off it'd be very easy to drill out the old thread and tap a new one to suit whatever bolt you can get your hands on.....

cant remember sorry, but you could take it out and run it down to a bolt shop to get a new one, probly fit up better to

yeah, its a sprecial thread!

just remove the nipple (with a deep socket) and run down and get it measured.

I remember they gave me a grub screw for mine. tapered... make sure to use teflon tape or paste....

or keep that nipple, make yourself a vac hose manifold and run it off that line...

on the money, this is exactly what ENZED gave me to block mine off.

well i dont have a deep socket... stupid thing! why does it have to be so long for?

i just put a bolt in the hose for now, ill get onto a grub screw later.

im yet to drive it, so im not sure if it made a difference yet.
