Looking for a block-off plate

I removed my cold start assist a while ago but just capped the line coming from the engine at the assembly, leaving the little assembly still bolted to the engine. i recently saw in a thread that you can in fact remove the assembly bolted to the engine block and cap it off with a block-off plate.

anyone know who or where i can buy a block-off plate made especially for the cold start assist? i could have sworn Icemark had some but i can't seem to find them on his website. thanks for the help, and if you've done this mod feel free to put in some input, is it about as straight-forward as removing the ACV and blocking it off?

only ones i've seen on ebay are usually single's, like bac, egr, acv, etc.

K2RD is what/who exactly?

You said you just needed a single... There's a few good sellers from Ebay that people have bought from and one of the buyers will probably pop in here soon.

www.k2rd.com (it's been down a while) is an aftermarket company

I think Kevin Landers MIGHT have some he could hook you up with. Don't use that as the word of God, just thinking he might.

you don't really need a block off plate. just capping it off will be fine.
