bbcmudtruck Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Posted February 21, 2008 I bought it from a guy like this, the other side is the same. Quote
WALLACE84 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 Did they break on him? maybe its just me but I wouldnt run that head just counting on the orings to keep the domes in place.... Quote
rtcc Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 Did he have some weird custom domes in there that they had to get rid of the key to hold them in place? There is no way that would brake off, had to be deliberate. Quote
sinisterboo Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 that must have been one tight ass spark plug!! Quote
WALLACE84 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 There is no way that would brake off, had to be deliberate. Thats basically what im saying..... Quote
Snopczynski Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 I bet he broke them off or ground them off to try and put a set of non pro design domes in it. Quote
BigRed350x Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 Have your local welding shop weld a ball of aluminum on there and take it to a machine shop and have them mill the little tab back in there and you will be set. The little tab only serves to index the dome and hold it from spinning when you install your spark plugs. I don't know about your area but around here I could get a welder and machine shop to fix that for less than $40. Lot cheaper than a whole new head. - Jared Quote
dajogejr Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 I would PM Dave Noss...see if he can help. I agree...someone tried to put "other" domes in there and ground that down to makeshift it... Quote
jbooker82 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 May be you could drill and tap it. Thread a stanless steel allen head bolt in to the hole then cut it off. That way you would just have a little stainless steel stud sticking out to keep the domes from turning. Quote
