In fact, I found EARLS part number for it. Its part No. 166106 (color red- I think they make it in blue and aluminum color)), I tried searching a few websites for it and could not find it. Don't know if they discontinued it or they simple don't list it. OK, Ed. Is this your final answer :-) Thank you very much for digging up the part number. I still have my doubts that it will fit perfectly, but there were some housings that we tried at the Race shop that were pretty darned close. I could have elongated the holes on a couple of them to make them fit, though they weren't AN16 fittings. I found a number of places that list this part, but of course everyone has to order it from Earl's. I finally just ordered it through my favorite place, Summit Racing. They had the "mill" finish listed, but not the other colors. According to their page, they will have it April-15th. The following is a link to a page that shows the housing in question. I hope this is the right one. http://www.tognottisautoworld.com/Products/Earl/clampscovers60.asp BTW, I got the AN16 tap today, and tapped the "junk" housing inlet with no serious problems. It's not a perfect set of threads, but it's plenty substantial for what we're doing. A little epoxy on the threads will offer that much more comfort. I'll tap the new housing tomorrow, and if all goes well, will have it installed. Things are really starting to bolt together now. I currently have the redrive, starter, intake, throttle body, turbo, and crank sensor installed. The radiator is officially on order, and they estimated that it would take two days to make it. With luck, by the end of the weekend, I'll run out of stuff to attach to the engine, short of hoses and wiring. Yep, getting excited now :-) Thanks, Rusty ------=_NextPart_000_0001_01C2F4A1.B564F680 Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Message
