I recently tool a look at my HKS valve to find that the nipple was bent and nearly broken off. Is this fixable and if so how do I do it.

good idea, just a little nervous it may somehow get into the valve. Ive never used this stuff before but heard good things about it.

Just took a better look at it and think the jb weld should work, thanks again for the suggestion!!

I crushed my recirc tube/fitting I guess I ate too much spinach before my install. I like to make sure my hose clamps are secure lol It ran fine Im not really sure what made me take it off to look at it like 4 months later???? (shocked)

I do need to reclock it. The one I orginally had was clocked correctly but when I bought htis it was clocked for a FMIC and I didnt see that it was hitting. The valve also seemed quieter then my last one but im sure this may be a result of that, but does anyone know why else it may have been quieter??
