where's he plate? that plate is what is going to help the fitting stay attached to the head. I haven't started my car with this mod done yet. once you start it, just be sure and keep an eye on the first few drives.

Sounds good. Please share pictures next weekend. When you pushed the fitting into the bore was it really easy? I just don’t want it to leak so waswondering how it was for you

IIRC you hit the plug at about the 9:00 position when standing by the drivers side fender. I eventually did a EGR delete, so the tube wasn't a issue.
Quick question about the aluminum "T" and the 1/2 hose. You probably don't remember since you did the mod such a long time ago, but figure i'd ask anyway. Is the "T" supposed to be lose on the hose until you tighten the clamps? It shouldn't be at least snug before tightening? I added some Indian head gasket compound to be on the safe side....
