McMaster-Carr has them, I have ordered them from there. The ones I have used were steel, I think they also come in stainless. Ed

EDIT:the part # for 1/4" NPT (female) forged steel, weld on tank fitting is

One came with my pyro kit from autometer. I used it to measure boost in between the turbos.

Just curious

Why would you want weld on 1/4 and 1/8" bungs. I understand larger sizes but I would think drilling and tapping would work better for small sizes??

 

[Forrest Nearing]

he might not be putting one in a cast iron manifold or elbow

exactly. thin wall pipe. and justin, the autometer bung is exactly what i'm looking for. i've got one from my pyro as well, but i need more and other sizes. i will do some more looking. thanks guys.

The ones from AutoMeter EGT gauge work great here one installed.

That boost line looks awfully close to the hot pipe.



Have you ever had any problems?

thanks poole. do you know if there is an AM part # for those?

No problem with it, this picture has better view. The header wrap helps plus in the truck it will be tie-wraped up out of the way. I have the part# i will PM you with it.
