O.K. Guys,
I haven't decided to do all of them or just the leaker. I have four 1/4 18 brass / Allen head pipe plugs ready to go along with the taps and reamer. I agree that doing the others will add to the possiblility of chips, however. If I replace the leaker and not the others it may transfer enough pressure to one of the other soft plugs and I may have another failure. Remember this Cobra will see track time as much as 3 times a year. I think Carnut427 has the right approach and I believe this procedure should not be rushed.

Also a valid point. Decisions, Decisions.......
I will keep you updated.
By the way if you have never seen one, the Lakewood is a monster bellhousing. Looks like it could take a mortar round and keep together. I will feel a lot safer at 6400 rpm down the boot straight with this in place. It does, however, look to need a lot of reaming of the holes because of powder coating build-up. That does not include mods in order to get it dialed-in.
