FelPro recommends the 1016 head gasket for aluminum heads over the standard 1218 gaskets that come in their engine gasket kits.

Pontiac heater nipples were restricted down to a 1/4" and they wouldn't have wasted money in doing that if there wasn't a reason. Edelbrock's included brass hose nipple is for the 5/8" hose and has an inside diameter of a 1/2". I always drill and tap for a plug with a 1/4" hole.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
