Twin H intake casting welch plugs
Hi guys. Sone of the casting plugs on my Twin H are leaking. I bought some new ones. Can you tell me the best way to install these?
Also is the hole in the casting a full 7/8"? After driling to remove the first one I took out, I can tell if there is maybe another in the manifold... like maybe 2 were stacked in there. See pic.
Thank you

Just knock them in with a socket and hammer0

It is 7/8” and not very deep0
-
So the 7/8 diameter goes right thru the wall of the casting? If so. someone must have doubled up one of them.0
-
Nevermind. You said not very deep.

Just put them in the hole with the dome facing up and hammer flat using a smaller socket. They will expand when flattened.0

Thank you gentlemen.
