So i guess after you grind off the top of the old one you can just slide the new one up after taking the old out, and then crush the piece coming through to keep it in place. If the machine shop can fix my prob for a reasonable amount ill have them do it but if not i guess ill but the bigger flapper and then use a file to port it out a little more (its already ported)
I wouldn't use the word 'crush,' rather 'beat the s**t out of it with a ballpeen hammer.' It takes awhile. But I've gotten two of these from SBR, both have worked fine.

You may also want to invest in some carbide bits. Porting for boost creep is always a good idea.
