I have a NX nitrous system that I am getting ready to install on my Z28. The fittings that were sent with the kit just barely start in the threaded orifices of the solenoids before they bind up. I have some aluminum fittings of the same type that thread into the pipe threads perfectly so it appears the threads on the fittings that were setn with the kit weren't cut deep enough. Is there any reason I can't use the aluminum fittings that I have. I can't think of any reason aluminum would be a probelm but I wanted to be sure. Thanks
