Hey guys, what do you do with the hole from the mechanical pump when doing an electric fuel conversion? Just stick a plug in there or something?

Okay thanks guys. I put the plug in earlier but i didn't put any sealant on there. Would it be good if i just put some overtop, or should i pull it out first?

I would probably just clean it up with some brake clean and put a thin bead around it.

I had my buddy machine up an aluminum plug shaped somewhat like a tophat with an oring groove and shoved it in there. Worked good until the engine developed enough blowby to blow it out every time I stood on it....Then had to make a bar to fit the fuel pump mount and clamp the plug in, ugly but it works...........LOL

I dunno how much different the mounting is but on an IDI a BBC blockoff plate works I believe
