Greetings,

I mentioned that I need to make a sleeve to adapt the MSD injectors to the holes in the center housing.  I was trying to find a stock piece of steel (or anything else that will work) tubing that had an ID of .55", and an OD greater than .65".  The plan would be to put this on the lathe, and turn the OD down to a nice fit in the holes in the block.  As it turns out, 14mm is almost exactly .55", and certainly close enough for the o-ring seal that will go there.  

Searching the internet, the only place I found that has this is Parker Steel International, and they're a wholesale only place, requiring tax exempt numbers, minimum orders, etc.  Does anyone know where I can get 14mm ID tubing that would work for this?

Thanks,

Rusty, try www.mcmastercarr.com. They have all kinds of metric tubing.
