We've been thru this numerous times. There is no threaded hole at the factory location in the block other than the oil sending unit extension hole. So where could it possibly go? It came from the factory in the timing cover on hundreds of thousands of these cars. There's zero issue with it.

I agree and yes I was the one that started that rumor the last time that subject came up, it's really bad to be stupid twice on the same subject.

Mine is bolted to the PS pump bracket stud. Figured it was bigger ( 7/16ths ) and would flow more through the bigger cable.

Make sure you also have the braided strap that goes from the lower intake to the firewall.

Does anyone know the flare nut size of that negative ground in the top pic?

I wanna say 9/16 head size.... Which would be 3/8"-16..... Unless it's metric which would be M10x1.5. Guess I'll need to look...lol.
