The question is that I don´t want to use big flat flange bolted/bonded filler caps. I prefer to use the old plastic threaded ones. I can get one commercial cap, but need to include the thread on the mold. Does anybody have any experience on a similar matter ? Every recomendation will be welcomed. Cheers !
