I am getting tired replacing the blank caps for the swan neck - is there a better solotion such as a screw top connection such as the Griff/Chimp set up?

Do you 'blue hylomar' them in, too?

Some people braize in a screw-fit brass plumbing fitting.

I might run a length of hose/pipe from the thermo housing straight to the top rad mount without a filling point. I've noticed this set up with other RV8s - filing up from the expansion tank and bleeding through the heater hose through a valve already plumbed in.
