Re: air injection manifold plugs
Most GM AIR injection tubes are fitted to the manifolds with flare nuts which are straight threads not NPT. I always use Allen head set screws. The size I have used is 1/2 X 20 the taper of the set screw tip is close enough to the 45deg flare which lets the set screw seal at the flare not the threads. I also use anti-seize on the threads for removal at a later time.
