Default ? EGR Manifold block off plate?

I know, I am asking a question that has been asked before, <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> I just can not find it now. Does anyone know where these plates are available from? Or pictures? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

As far as the plates for blocking off the "connections" on the headers/manifolds... a lot of sponsors (Speed Inc.) sell the three (2- air and 1-EGR) for about $15-20. For the EGR into the "intake" manifold using an expansion/freeze plug works excellently. I believe I used a 1.25" one. It works great and doesn't look to bad either.

Good luck!

Probably have more luck in the "external engine" area.

P.S. You might want to double check the size of expansion plug to use 1.25"-1.5" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

The item to plug the intake manifold hole is actually a 1 3/8 expandable plug.. I got mine PepBoys.. I also used some JB Weld around the edge to make sure it was air tight <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Moving to external engine so you can get some confirmation on this..
