SC Problems

Ok, so i finally really did install the sc correctly this time. with all the mistakes i fixed it felt like i let a 5 yr old loose in my engine bay, but with a little hands on learning ive got it about figured out now. ive got two hopefully simple questions however.
1. The screw on the top of my bov is stripped allowing for minimal adjustment. can it be fixed or do i have to just get another bov. mine is the greddy type s i believe.
2. does anyone know where i can buy the very small fitting for a boost gauge. it consists of a tiny ball-like washer that locks around the small plastic vac tube and a screw in fitting that connects onto the vac "T". Napa and autozone dont have it, so im assuming its difficult to find. sorry for being vauge, but the part if difficult to describe. thanks!

1. Find a screw that just fits in and put some teflon tape on the screw threads. My old BOV was like that and it worked just fine

2. I know exactly what your talking about. Its on the guage side. I wouldnt know where to buy something like that, but you can try calling summit racing and see if they sell boost gauge accesories. They may help you out
