Default Injector plugs

Switching over to carb setup and was wondering what anyone has used to plug the 8 injector holes in the intake? Really don't want to have them welded shut in case injection is back in the future. Maybe a small freeze plug of some type? Thanks for any info.

I would look for a frost plug or a expanding rubber plug for them. If ya want to use injection in the future the threads might mess with the injector o-ring during installation. The only thing is if you have a backfire they the intake it could push temp plugs out if it hit hard enough.

I would worry IF there was a backfire that they'd blowout....then that "could be" a good thing too if you planed to spray it

Id fond whatever fits and use the injector rail retainers to hold them in.

Maybe just leave your injectors in with your rails and just done hook them up lol. For the price of those plugs you could sell your intake and buy a carb intake then have someone just drill out the injectors if you want to go back?
