George, I swapped out my Thermostat housing for a later type as well, but I never liked their bolt bleeder. Coolant would get all over the housing and mess up the top of the block (no matter how many rags I’d wrap around the base of the housing.

 

I checked and the boss on top had enough meat to drill and tap a 1/8 NPT thread. I bought these brake bleeder kits at a local hardware supply store and installed it. Now, I don’t spill a drop – I connect a small piece of nylon tubing over to a small plastic bowl and the coolant runs cleanly into it...
