i just put a b18a bottom end with my b18b head since i fried the b's bottom end. on the thermostat housing it has a extra outlet for a hose that i do not need on my b18b head. I have a piece of hose with a big bolt in the end clogging the end of it. But when i got it going today when she warmed up damn coolent was leaking from the bolt and i dont know any other way to plug somthing like that... thnax

yea i know i need some ghetto way to do it that might work thoughor t it into one of my other coolent lines lol..
you could try putting a small clamp around the bolt. You wouldn't even have to take it off.
We pull it out.
It is just press fit in there.
Then, tap the hole 1/8NPT, and put a plug in it.
Err, or 1/4" NPT, which ever one you are reffering to.
You can see how we did it in this pic of Vtecvoodoo's car.
