New Intake Manifold water cooling plugs, necks, etc....

What do you guys use when setting up a new intake? With the new Performer intake I've put in I want to use something that will both work well with aluminum and not corrode and maybe even look good. I need both the water neck for the heater core which is 5/8" and a plug to go with it for a non-AC application.

I know I can just go down to the el-cheap-o parts store and get the basic zinc coated fittings, but I was hoping to get either aluminum or stainless steel. Brass is out because it doesn't mix well with aluminum...

Thanks.

If anyone has an angle on where to buy I'd love to know....

I've seen the streetrod suppliers sell stainless ones, can't remember who exactly. Streetrodders can get just about anything in stainless.

Jegs sells both 5/8" and 3/4" for the intake and water pump. I went ahead and ordered them.

Now all I need is the plug on the other side of the cooling jacket...
