    Does this sound doable?

    Those rv roof air units run off 110 volts from the onboard generators, so unless you are gonna run a 3000 or 4000 watt generator in the back I would say no

    CUCV engine block repair

    CUCV engine block repair

    I think it will work, measure the dia of the holes. One chart I found online shows a drill dia of 9/16 or .562 for a 3/8 npt tap. Another showed 37/64 which is .578 . You should be able to buy a kit with the tap and drill bit.

    Glow plug size

    I made an adapter for my compr gauge with a brass 1/8 in pipe thread nipple- it screws right into the glow plug hole. It must be close enough and since its brass its not going to hurt the head.
