I'm guessing here (educated I hope) but,they would be NPT, do you have the fittings that came out to be able to measure ? Brass plugs should be available I would have thought.

Brass plugs try Pirtek mate. I think the diff between BSP & NPT is one thread per inch. And you can get tapered ones too.

Cheers, Mudgy

Like Mudgy said mate Pirtek or Enzed. I am running a 302 Clevo in the Pilot and I think from memory I bought an original block off hose and clamp for about $5- 10( I bought 2) and I am sure it was off evilbay or Supercheap and it works a treat. It is ridgy didge and looks the goods. :wink:
