@Stan Galat posted:You can't spin that nut because everybody figures we all use the special reduced head nuts that cost about a buck per. I've given up and just use them for everything, since nothing fits without them (headers, intakes, etc.). As for the rest - you're a regular Renaissance man, @Michael Pickett.
I can't think of a single guy here who wouldn't be excited about a low-cost EFI solution. I think it'd keep a lot of guys in air-cooled mills if it became more common-place.
Back in the 90's when I was living in Denver, I had to get an insurance quote from the Kennedy tool dealer and discovered they were an Au-VeCo dealer. After running all over town looking for two of those 12mm bolts for my 912 in vain, I bought a box of 100 and a box of 100 copper exhaust crimp nuts. Ever since, I've been able to "single use" those exhaust bolts like you're supposed to and I never have to run to the hardware store looking for those unicorn bolts.
I've still got about 30 of the copper ones left and 50 of the others.
