Preferred thread size & type APT Access Plug?

(1/2) > >>

Silver 7T8:
What is the best choice when replacing the APT press-in plug -
1/8" counter sunk PIPE Thread Plug ?
3/8" X 16 (course) Socket Head Screw ?
3/8" X 24 (fine)      Socket Head Screw ?

What is the size of the APT screw on the Edelbrock carb.

 I would go with the 3/8"-24 allen head screw. At least that is what I have used. :)

 Not sure on the Edelbrock APT in Cliff's book. Cliff would be best to answer.

 Glad to have you on this site as well. 8)

I've always used the 1/8 pipe plug, saw where Cliff mentioned 3/8 set screw.

carmantx:
I use the 3/8 x 16

Silver 7T8:
Looks like I received a "Vote-for-each-Choice"?
I guess any of the THREE will work as a screw-in APT Plug.

Again, THANKS to ALL
