    Does anyone know where I can get a EGT bung welded onto my new headers? The old cast iron stockers were thick enough to drill and tap, but I fear the stainless of the new ones is too thin.

    Thanks.

    Also, anyone know where to get one locally? I can buy online, but that is such a waste for a $5 part....
