Yes, or just unbolt the hose coupling from the BAC if you are removing the BAC.

This makes no sense. To remove the BAC you need a block-off plate. Doing the TB mod won't change this...

You dont have to remove the BAC to do the TB mod, it has nothing to do with the TB besides the line running from the bac to the cold start assist.

The two lines are allready coupled together, through the metal coupling that is screwed onto the BAC.

If you for some reason didn't want the BAC warmed by coolant, then you would just unscrew the coupling from the BAC.

A tap with the correct thread and pitch for the bolt you want to use.
