I had one of the cheap made in China cast iron housings and could never get the pipe fitting plug to seal properly. Always found a puddle of coolant in a hollow in the intake after a drive. Tried Teflon tape, thread sealer, RTV, you name it, nothing worked. I may have just gotten a bad one, but I wouldn't rely on one. You're always better off with OEM.

not that it matters now, but I've read that the yellow gas pipe teflon tape is thicker. Might have made a difference (or not) To the OP if the question is if a brand new AMC water neck made in the USA by Edelbrock would be well received, I would say that yes it certainly would, but as always, price would likely be a factor. Thanks for asking and thinking about us Dennis
