I'm sure someone else will have a need and Ill sell them on then. No biggie.

Those guys have the bolts in stock in their Dallas location and can overnight, thats how im getting them. Im sure there are plenty of folks about who do or will soon need these things...

I ordered 16.

The plugs to replace the air injector nozzles on the 308 2-valves are a custom design. A few different designs/approaches are shown/discussed in this thread for those interested: 308 2-valve air injector plugs Verell Boaen (Verell) Member Username: Verell Post Number: 631 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 9:48 pm:    Search the archives, Jeff Howe (Ferrari.uk) said they have them. Terry Springer (Tspringer) Member Username: Tspringer Post Number: 420 Registered: 4-2002 Posted on Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 9:37 pm:    I tried to find some bolts today that may work in place of the custom plugs. It is a m14 x 1.5 bolt, fine thread. All that is really needed is 8 of these bolts with the end machined as per spec.

I need the tubes to the manifold and the pully assembly that runs the air pump.308 1983 Ben Millermon (Brainsboy) Junior Member Username: Brainsboy Post Number: 171 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 8:16 pm:    You know I will Terry, that is if Jerrys friend Peter doesnt mind. This is getting confusing with so many people's names Terry, Jerry, Peter-paul-and Marry.. Terry Springer (Tspringer) Member Username: Tspringer Post Number: 419 Registered: 4-2002 Posted on Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 5:49 pm:    Here ya go Ben.... any chance you want to whip me up 8 of these bad boys? Dang.... my images are larger than 640x640 and wont post. I will email you all the specs and pictures Ben. Terry Jerry W.

I can't seem to find mine. Ben Millermon (Brainsboy) Junior Member Username: Brainsboy Post Number: 170 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 4:27 pm:    Jerry can you give us a photo. Im curious if they run all the way in the ports or if he cut them off short. I have a lathe, so I might as well do the same thing, if you dont mind me using your idea. Jerry W. (Tork1966) Member Username: Tork1966 Post Number: 580 Registered: 7-2001 Posted on Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 3:19 pm:    I just had 8 made 2 weeks ago. The bolts cost me about $10.00 and I had my brother in law turn them on a lathe at work to get that little 10 mm "nub" at the end of each. I think the bolts are m14 x 1.5. Terry Springer (Tspringer) Member Username: Tspringer Post Number: 418 Registered: 4-2002 Posted on Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 2:03 pm:    Anyone out there have 8 extra 308 air injection manifold plugs? I have all the specs to have them made, but was hoping it would be cheaper and easier to buy some if anyone has them available? So.... anyone got any or know where to get some? If they are unobtainable I will have a batch made. Terry [email protected]
