What is the best way to block that top hole in the timing cover. I can not find a freeze plug that will fit properly. Wanted to hear what you guys have done. Also if you guys have used freeze plugs part numbers or sizes would be awesome.

 

the freeze plug I used was just a bit smaller than the hole, but the JB weld held it in place just fine. sorry, I don't have any info on the plug I used.

 

JB Weld and a quarter. Been holding for years.

 

Few things on Gods green earth are as sweet as backyard ingineering of this caliber. I will remember that when the pump goes in later this month.

 

aluminum washer and a tig welder. if it ever moves i will be amazed.

 

So it really comes down to jb weld? That just feels.... Ghetto?

 

Nobody will ever see it so who cares.

 

The best way? I welded mine.

 

Bud Light cap was used on mine...I DIDN'T DO IT. IT CAME THAT WAY.

 

This has to be the best way to plug it I have ever heard of by a very large margin! I find that ANY time you can recycle beer can/bottles/caps and incorporate them into your race car it's good for at least 10 HP!

 

it's more like 25!
