[QUOTE="atafonso, post: 628453, member: 23592"] Hi folks I remove all of these plugs then drill and tap for allen brass plugs. For the main reason of cleaning the oil gallery properly on rebuild as 98% of rebuilders don`t do it and leave loads of gunk, swarfs and all inside the galleries. Upon first start up, all that junk gets pushed into the oil lines scoring all the new bearings and crank.. no good :shock: After doing the drill and tap, they become serviceable every time you strip the engine, so it`s a win win ;) Abel [/QUOTE]
