Looking for a late model "Tee" off a 124 TC head that has the 
bleeder screw built in.  

I modified my older style this weekend and Wow! does it make 
bleeding the cooling system easy.  The problem with mine is that 
there isn't much meat there for tapping and my mod does not look 
like it will last long term.

One question, can I just swap the tee or do I also need to 
change the riser that it mounts to from the head?
