Ernest, Many on this list have welded in threaded bungs available through auto parts suppliers. Some of the evaporator cores already have nice curved inlets and outlets welded in that you can attach hoses to. Jim

going to be using 3/4" hoses, Bobby). I've assumed that about the only
way to do this would be to weld on a nipple. But pouring that much heat
into a radiator presents the possibility of damaging it. Are there any
other possibilites that don't involve heat? It would be neat if
someone made a gasketed, threaded insert that would expand when an NPT
fitting is inserted. Insert it like a grommet, then add the fitting to
lock it to the sides. An angled
lip would pull the flange down onto the
gasket. Anyone ever seen such a beast?
