I had a fitting blow out on my car and thats why I pinned EVERY fitting to prevent this from happening again. I do not want to be on boost going to Las Vegas and having this happen. It is a preventative procedure that everyone should do. That all I am saying.
To knurl every fitting on your cars means dropping the motor and heating up every fitting and regluing. If your going to do this then WELD. So knurling is out unless you have a fitting already removed.....does that make sense?? Do all eight boys,,,,its pretty simple, Mike
