Ill turn you one on my lathe if you want something other than a freeze plug. Ill even set it up to act as a drain for something if ya want. Steel, aluminum, or brass whatever. Ill just charge material and shipping. Ill be making one for my motor eventually, just don't expect it tomorrow. Let me know, if not whatever.

Napa 7/8" freeze plug.

Well got a 7/8" freeze plug from oreilly yesterday and it is too small. I'm going to do some measuring but kind of thinking they sold me the wrong size. it fell right through. Seems that the consensus is that its 7/8" so I'll measure what they sold me and go from there.

We just get them right from Ford. They are an odd size. May check your local dealer. Or let me know if you cant find one!
