F.
Remove the factory O-ring type gaskets to prevent
damage from heat. Clamp the steel hose barb end
of the coolant crossover tube in a vise as shown.
Using a small amount of heat, heat the aluminum
crossover tube. Using a twisting motion, remove
the steel insert. (See Fig. 5.1-d.) Penetrating oil
will also aid in this step.
G.
Locate the supplied 1-1/4" expansion plug
(7P125-002).
H.
Coat the expansion plug with sealant. Using a tube
or socket that matches the recessed diameter of the
plug, install the plug flush with the machined sur-
face sealing the outlet of the crossover tube. (See
Figs. 5.1-e, 5.1-f.)
I.
Locate the supplied coolant relocation fitting, sealing
nut and O-ring washer. (See Fig. 5.1-g.)
J.
Install the fitting in the location of the factory
coolant bleed plug. (See Fig. 5.1-h.) Screw the
jam nut all the way onto the fitting. Tighten the
fitting in the position shown. (See Fig. 5.1-h.)
Secure with the jam nut.
K.
Reinstall the factory O-ring gaskets to the
crossover tube.
L.
Set the coolant crossover tube back in its original
location.
M.
Reinstall the two 10mm headed bolts through the
crossover tube into the cylinder heads.
Temporarily install two intake manifold retaining
bolts through the crossover tube into the cylinder
heads, where the manifold will be secured. Leave
these loose as they are there only as a pilot for the
crossover tube.
N.
Tighten the crossover tube retaining bolts, and
remove the two manifold retaining bolts.
NOTE:
It is recommended that sealant be used
to seal the thread of the fitting.
