Default for those with ls/vtec (and u built it yourself, or u know of some knowledge of external oil passage

umm the title has a typo.. oooooops.

i have the earls fittings... now my head is an ITR head and i used a torch to head up the allen bolt thing in the head and i took it out. so now i put in my earls fiting but its not soo easy to thread in.. i figured it wouldnt be very easy. so am i ok, or did i just crossthread the head and should leave the earls fitting in there.

thanx

Those fittings are cone shaped so the tighter it gets the better the seal is. Just remember to use hondabond as well.

NPT and BSPT are different. Either get a converter fitting or just kinda force the NPT fitting in tehre
