Quick ? on adding -10an's to valve cover
 

Wondering if I can add a -10an fitting to each valve cover (pass & drivers) ? I've looked into to custom units with everything already installed and the price is a little on the steep side. I actually like my LT4 valve covers with the polished (MBA) inserts. So, I was hoping I could actually add a -10an to each side, has anyone tried installing a set on the composite LT4 covers ?

Here is a link of the part I thought I would use (bulkhead fitting -10an):

forgive me for asking BUT WHY.

And why are thosing fittings not polished, nickel or gold....

Hes adding them for a PCV port

Those posted will work fine. If you want a leak free design, get a pair of weld on bungs

composite LT4 covers...cant weld 'em.

Plastic weld, maybe. LOL :D

:gtfo::bash::rice:twak::thumbsdow:buttkick::chuck-bal

lol haha buy some canton aluminum covers and then you can weld them on.

check these out I bought em for 60 on ebay and then went to town on them......all I did for the fitting was make two retainers out of aluminum on the lathe and then put on the bulkhead nut and peened over the back side so it couldn't come loose and fall into the blender of valvetrain underneath it

ok well it won't let me post a pic but check out my other post and you can see it

Do you guys suggest a little loc-tite on the back of the bulkhead and the nut to secure it inside the valve-cover ? I definitely would not want the nut to start banging around in my upper valve-train :punch:

just peen over the edge of the bulkhead fitting after you put on the nut and it wont be able to come off, and yea id loctite too

Cool, good idea.
