Hopefully it works. I got the thing done to the point of starting today and it all went a bit pear shaped when I went to fill the coolant. The fitting into the side of the waterneck was leaking, so I had to pull that (which is not an easy or fun thing on this swap since it is against the firewall).
I shoulda paid more attention, the old fitting appeared to seep a bit based on the discoloration when I removed it to replace it with an aluminum one. I think the threads were machined wrong into the KPower waterneck, which they appear to have revised with a plug welded in insert in newer ones.
Options are buy a new waterneck for $210 or have an aluminum fitting machined down and tigged in.
Starting to run into a time crunch here.
