Pipe plug and welch plug sizes sbc

[kdem]

Anyone have a list of the size and number of pipe and welch plugs needed for a sbc? I know I had saved a sheet but cannot find it here at work. Thanks! Kevin

You'll also need two 3/8" NPT plugs in the block next to the engine mounts for coolant. The article that picture came from looks fairly complete.

Thanks, man! I was thinking the one above the oil filter was 3/8". The one above the timing cover is 1/4" I think. Kevin

I forgot about those 2. I was thinking the one above the timing cover was 1/8" NPT and I'm pretty sure you are right about the one next to the oil filter, if it's not 3/8" it is 1/4" NPT. I could go slide under my truck in the parking lot at work but it's snowing like a SOB out there right now. Someone will chime in who knows for sure.

No need to go out in this weather, and I'm sure you are getting hit worse than us in Omaha. It got really cold here and the wind has kicked up again
