I am not a professional mechanic and the methods described in my videos are solely based on my research and intuition. I make mistakes and when I do, I try to point them out so others don't make the same mistakes. These videos are meant only as a description of what I was trying to do and how I went about doing it. Before attempting any service on your car, conduct your own research and use common sense.

Did you ever find out the hex screw size? I've been looking to replace mine.

Wish my engine looked as clean as yours

[@KnineLiveZ]

lets gooooo almost there!

[@ricardodiaz4088]

What are those AN fittings called used on the valve cover? I remember you used them when you rebuilt your fuel system on the fuel pump/sender unit. Or is it a combination of parts that sandwiches the fititngs like that?

[@TheZGarage]

These are standard bulkhead an fittings. The ones you'd get for a fuel pump usually have two sets of threads on the bottom. One for holding the fitting in place, and another for attaching the line to. This kind only has one set of threads as you don't attach anything underneath

@TheZGarage Thank you for the info. You're doing great work and the quality of your videos is stellar.

where did you get the manifold from?

[@krunkystardust2846]

The intake and exhaust manifold are from Pucker Factory Fabrication. But be warned, its a one man show and the guy running it is notorious for bad fitment, and you'll likely be waiting years for orders to be fulfilled. I've been told by several people in this community to steer clear.

​@@krunkystardust2846I would really like to know where you have heard we are notorious for bad fitment. We have sold thousands of parts and have rarely had any complaints about issues in 10+ years.

​@@krunkystardust2846 I would really like to know where you have heard we are notoriously for bad fitment? We haven't had many complaints in the 10 years we have been making parts for the z31 community. Hundreds of pictures on Instagram and facebook or parts fitted

[@puckerfactoryfabrication9366]

I would really like to know since when we are notorious for bad fitting parts? We have built thousands of parts for the z31 community and other communities and rarely have had any issues, and the rare occasion there has been an issue we have always reached out to our customers.
