Looking for a distributor bore plug

DarylP · 08-06-2007, 11:26 PM

Wondering i someone is making a bore plug for the 4age head for ppl running a none distributor ignition system. Was thinking about just cutting down the old distributor shaft housing and capping it off for a plug. But if someone was selling a billet plug that would be great... Daryl..

why not use a cover plate + some RTV? maybe use a freeze plug? I know I saw a picture of someones setup that used some sort of compresison plug that you turn teh bolt and it squeezed rubber outwards to make a tight fit..

That might have been one of those rubber core plugs that expanes when a bolt on it is tighten. Heck not a bad ideas but not sure if the oil would eat that type of rubber and cause problems.
