Flush mount oil drain bolt- Ford
I'm soon going to be buttoning up my engine. I'm using Martins pan. Does anyone know of a flush mount drain bolt? It would free up about a 1/2" of ground clearance.
Thanks. Brad

Im pretty sure the bolt is a 1/2x20 thread. you could use a set screw but run the risk of it backing out or threading it to far in. but it would be "flush"

yes, but I guess you'd still need to weld on a washer to the end of it or it would leak. I'll not worry about it this time around. If it's an issue I want address, I'll do it on the next engine. I'll stick to the book on this one. Thanks all.
