those two ports on the valve cover " dont know the correct name"

No welding and just as effective.

"We have a TIG so we prepped the valve cover and removed the anodized coating from the fittings to prepare them for welding.."

The fittings they used do not require welding.

You're trying too hard.

no, sir. just quoting what the article said.


yumad,doe?

you just proved my assumption, thanks.

thanks for the info guys, but i think i'll go with the tig welding method,
do i really have to remove the baffle? cant i just drill the holes and weld the fittings on? cuz it seems like alot of work to tap back new threads to reinstall back the baffle and if things go wrong there i'll have to get a new valve cover..

The only reason you'd remove the baffle is so you can screw the lock nuts onto the back of the fitting. Since you're welding the fitting on, you dont screw anything to the back of it. Thus, you wont need to remove the baffle.

Make sure if you're ordering the stuff and just gonna have someone do it, that you get aluminum fittings. You'll need whats referred to as bung fittings, since they're not threaded on the backside (for the lock nut).
