You need a male 5/16” inverted flare plug, 5/16 being the line size, not thread.

If “brake clean” doesn’t remove grease/oil, why is it commonplace to spray down new rotors with it when doing a brake job?

It’s quite involved, from initial design to, if needed, altering. I have no idea on how TPP casts, or has cast, the intakes in question. I’m only familiar with green sand/snap molding and using...
