Morning All,

Cheers

Alex

which version of the manifold ?


omega0684 - 2/9/10 at 11:56 AM

errrrr the one in the burton catalog

its the one at the top of the list if you search "pinto DCOE manifold" (INLET MANIFOLD SOHC PINTO 2x45DCOE 3.4"

this link might work

Burton Link

It's an NPT thread - not sure on size but i have a tap for it at home.....

just checked my old posts and can confirm it is 3/8 NPT

working linky

sorry I've got no idea
I know all the stock ford stuff is NPT....

I've only got stock EFI ones or a bogg bros ZX9R one (much like your old Bogg Bros R1 manifold)

Standard is 1/4 NPT IIRC

thats the little water temp sensor on the block. I believe he is refering to the much larger one in the center of the inlet manifold which is 3/8NPT

Water temp sensor is 1/8NPT, oil pressure sensor is 1/4 NPT

You are right it may well be 3/8NPT for the water outlet.
