Plug installed
One other thing which Ill be paying super close attention to. The plug is now the highest point on the engine. I fear for my custom hood liner getting a rub mark. I put a piece of tape on the top of the plug and it didn't move with the hood closed but its my only concern.

Otherwise it looks great.
Aside from that gap it looks good. Can you put a SS washer in there to fill the gap?Plug installed

One question, I have it snugged all the way down and I noticed a little gap between the tube and the plug. I didn't run the car and I didn't have a chance to compare the two plugs since coolant rushed out as soon as I removed the old plug. Anyone run the car for a while with it installed yet?

Maybe the plug needs a few more threads?
Keep us informed on what your impressions are as far as hood liner wear.
Are there any more. I would like to buy one also. ( polished )

Jim, please update the price list for shipping Canadian members, I need to order 2 and need to know how many beaverbucks send (since you've already done the research it appears).
Thanks!
Anyone else see gap issues with this plug?
See post #123.
I was trying to see if this is a widespread issue with all of them or if there may be different variations on the COT where some will have a gap and some won't.
Is a design tweak required if there is a gap?
It's an extra $10.00 per plug to ship north of the border.
Getting some PMs about the plugs.
The original post about getting 2 weeks after ordering was a bit optimistic, but that is what I was told by the guy that is making them.
The plugs are being made in 2 batches. The first batch arrived last Friday and they were shipped out on Monday to the following members:
SC Cheesehead
F. Wallace
V. Clarke
A. Ciccarelli
vkirkend

They should be arriving today. If you are in the list above and ordered multiple plugs you are getting what you ordered.
Will post here when the second batch arrives.
Sorry for the delay.
