That's a pretty slick solution. I like it.
Can I ask a few easy questions?
In the video, you use a significant amount of Loctite 640 and mention that it only cures in the absence of air. It still makes me uncomfortable to think of that much bonding agent dripping down into the squirter bore and inside the squirter itself when used on the screw cap. Is my concern completely misguided and due to me not understanding the properties of Loctite 640? Does the excess just get washed out thru the squirter during the first start-up? Is it a potential issue if the engine sits for an extended period before being run?
On the sizing choices: the original squirters I removed from my 2.7L case measure 6.27mm. The replacements I received from the machine shop (which look like stock but are of their own making I was told) measure 6.37mm. I don't want to jinx myself, but the 3 I have removed so far, came out super cleanly and left the bores in really great shape. Will your standard sized 5.95mm barrels work? Your video mentions using a 6.4mm drill bit for the oversized barrels - what drill bit could I use as a gauge for 5.95mm barrels?
Thanks for developing what looks to be a great solution.
Tom
