62t fp manifold on 61x cylinder?

[fischer550]

Can I put a 62t fp manifold on a 61x cylinder? As far as I can tell, the only difference is the hole size is bigger on the manifold.

Yes. Works fine. Just make sure you get it centered nicely because they holes are larger than the bolts. It is possible to mount cocked.

Buy eight 5/16 brass compression sleeves at local hdwr store, stick in each oversized hole, works nicely. Picture: http://www.ebay.com/itm/GAR-60CS5-5...ece-/331080224445?hash=item4d15eb4ebd&vxp=mtr

Even better way to do it. ^^^^^

Why 8? Buy two, and it'll locate all 8 on center.

Last time I looked, the 62T cut manifold needed to be mounted higher than center in order to get even gasket engagement.

I looked all over for those, I ended up getting some helicoils and cutting off the end that closes up it. I am installing it today.

He's talking about the manifold not the cylinder broham

 

[MCrider]

As am I, I'm threading them over my m8 bolts into the unthreaded section of the bolt and the O.D. of the helicoils fits nicely in the manifold bolt holes.

Gotcha. Didn't realize that's what you meant.
