Default Plug Nitrous Holes??

well i bought a setup from my boy who was doing a direct port nitrous setup....he gave me the edelbrock manifold with the setup....now it has 4 tapped holes in the runners for the direct port....

im not running nitrous so whats the best way to plug the holes? would a threaded plumbing plug like this work? just put teflon tape around it and screw them im the holes?

as long as the holes are totally sealed shut, i don't see what the issue would be. go for it boss.

So long as the thread is right and the threads arent messed up you'll be fine with putting a pipe plug in.

If the threads are trashed, or not enough thread for your liking you can have them welded shut and just smooth the runner inside. I had to run smaller nozzles than my old manifold was set up for, so we welded some material in and drilled it for the smaller size. Then plugged that until I got around to using them...err thought I was going to use them lol
