If by chance it doesn't since the threaded insert in the AFC cover are buttered up, drill it out and tap it for 1/8" NPT. Remove the hard line and elbow from the head and use two 90deg 1/8" NPT to 1/4" air line. Get a short section of 1/4" air brake line and use that. Then, you won't have to mess with it down the road if you want to fiddle with pump timing adjustments, as it'll be flexible ;)

Not a good picture, but you can see the looped 1/4" line.

Considering that "plug" looks like it's left hand thread, I'm gonna assume it's plenty buttered up. :lol:

Yeah, it looked left handed to me too, but I'm getting old and thought my eyes were seeing it wrong. ;) I finally swapped mine to all NPT fittings and hose too. The swivel I had blew apart so I got all new fittings and hose and replaced it all.

Just enough power to break everything behind the crankshaft.
