9/16 - 32 UN . You can order the tap and die from any good supply company.
I think I paid around $25.00 for both. Steve

If you are in that deep, I suggest getting the Nicolaus book or Kuhnhausen's book.

Gas Plug Repo?
Seems like you guys know your stuff. What is the best way to tell if a single slot plug is a repo or authentic?
