I am out right at the moment and it is real expensive to make just
2 on an NC lathe.
The biz is starting to pick up again but it will be six months or a
year before
it is fiscally possible to make a bunch more on an NC lathe.

I can hand make two of them for you for $25 dollars each.

Go on the Lamar Instruments web site and make a $50 donation
to the time to climb project.

What is the thread? Could you use a short cap screw of say 1/2"
length and drill a hole in the
center and Siler solder or braze a short tube that has a small lip
on it?

Paul and All,

 Double check the thread for the oil injector hole fittings.........I have used short 86-91 RX7 torque converter
to flex-plate bolts to plug these holes........If I remember correctly they are 10 mm x  1.25 thread.......FWIW

Kelly Troyer

I think you screwed up the threads :-) A metric 1.0 is real close to a metric 1.25
It is easy to screw the wrong metric thread into aluminum :-)


Paul Lamar

For the rx8 (not sure on others), I can confirm the oil injector holes are 1.25thread.
I also checked the machines pressure tap fittings and they are 1.25 aswell.
Buy some m10x1.25 10mm length, drill a hole and weld a barb or AN fitting.
