I've rebuilt my engine and put it back into pig, about to put radiator back in but I hate the little plastic plug that it came with. Had to reach up to it with needle nose pliers to remove it.
I loved the long drain down tube on my old radiator but the threaded hole on new radiator base is much smaller (see photo).
I'd like to use my old drain tube, but need to size it down from M16x1.25 to M10x1.5
Any websites I should go to for that type of fitting?
I'm wondering about just buying a M10x1.5 pipe fitting and have it welded to end of my drain tube.
or I could just use a long M10x1.5 bolt.
Not sure what to do. Just don't want to use that plastic plug that came with newer radiator.
