Just wanted to see if anyone had done it, I will tap it soon and then see if I can get two plugs in there with some red lock tight.


Uhh...the way Jason stated doesn't require removing the head, he was referring to filling in the hole on the intake manifold head flange. You'd only be out whatever it costs for a new IM gasket, if you even needed to get a new one.

Wouldn't tapping with everything on the car introduce foreign material (metal shavings) to the system? Sounds like a bad idea to me, although I guess with a strong vacuum you could get most if not all of it cleaned up.
