JB weld on valve cover??
Might be a ridiculous question. Can you use JB weld on the valve cover? I want to put 2 ports in it. Drill 2 holes, jb weld the 2 ports into the valve cover. It's for a breather tank on a turbo setup. Rather then welding 2 ports on it professionally. Thanks, hope that makes sense.

They make A/N fittings that are "compression" fittings. They use a nylon seal on the backside, so it's a no weld/no leak deal.

Re: (HMTforlife)
like HMTforlife said, just prep it well.
mine has been jb'd for 2years and have not cracked loose/leaked or had any problems with it.
cheap but it works perfect for me.

Re: (H22_TURBO)
That's what I was thinking. Definitely have to prep it well, easy part. What do you guys suggest using to make the ports, just your typical electric drill?

Re: (VTECth1s)
then take it to a buddies house and diy it with a tig. i just don't understand boogering up your valve cover and potentially have issues to say "yup. did it myself".

theyre called bulkhead fittings. you can get them and everything else on summit.
i did my valve cover with bulkhead AN fittings and works just as good as welding it.
