Hey all!

Looks like I've got some stripped threads in the aluminum sealing block
on my TR6. Anyone have one they'd care to sell me from a parted-out
engine? I'd rather go with a new-to-me original piece than going the
helicoil route.

Thanks all!

Sincere thanks to all who responded. I think I will first try drilling and t=
apping the sealing block to 3/8 - 24. If that works out, great. If not, a st=
eel block seems to be the best (if not the least expensive) solution....

Cheers all!
