All,
I will be shipping an engine and would like to plug the 12 ports with something other than rags, I have seen Crate Engines with plastic plugs within each port. I looked at the search results and spent an hr spinning my wheels, see pic below. Does anyone know of a vendor? Thank you Teeners! CTC911CTC  |

The aluminum foil tape is good option. I always tab over the end so removal is easier.
