The jet positions do not get changed easily . . . and my customers are fairly rough on them. That stainless is substanial. Larry

Aug 31, 2011 #6 Larry Cobb Member Joined Oct 7, 2006 Messages 5,795 Location Dallas, Texas USA Name Larry Cobb If you're hitting the jet manifold hard enough to move the elbows . . . then you might want to take a close look at the jets themselves. The jet openings are probably "hammered shut". Larry Bob; Locktite is too mild for these guys . . . just WELD every single piece together

The manifold assembly needed pipe thread, NOT straight threads. What it really need is a PC Ti wand type manifold set up but that would require a new head casting
