I just used a 1/4" think piece of aluminum and traced the OMP, drilled 4 holes and it works great.... You can use vacuum caps on the oil injectors. The vacuum the motor puts out will hold them on the injectors...
Good luck!

Block off plate is from www.K2RD.com
To plug the holes:
Go and buy some 10mm x 1.50 pitch bolts ( I believe 20mm long). Take the banjo fittings from the unused/old oil fittings and grind the nipple off, as shown in the pic:

The mystery of the prize.
hi banzai 
I just bought some short bolts for the rotor housings, I think the specs banzai provided are correct.. but I cut them down to be short enough so I could just bottom the head out. I tried finding hex socket set screws to do it with but failed, metric selection around here is **** poor. I just torqued em a bit and used some red lock tite. On the LIM I had a local shop fill the holes with a TIG welder then ground it smooth.

I have a question.
On a 1990 T2, when you block off the OMP, do you also remove the gear on the inside of the front cover that used to turn the OMP? One snap ring and it should pop out...

someone makes something that plugs into the OMP assembly and you hook it up to a tank and it mixes thew premixed oil in instead of motor oil, everyone familiar or no, if not ill try to find the link...costs $80....

Yes, I am installing a Haltech right now. I am going to finish putting the engine back together tonight, and I was going to yank out that gear before putting the front cover back on. Is there any compelling reason why I shouldn't?

Someone told me that they used JB Weld to seal a dime over the hole. Will that work?
For a block off plate, You could trace the omp or its gasket (if you have a new one) onto a 1/4" piece of alluminum and cut it out like bkapold@aol.com mentioned above.

You cannot remove the metering oil system on the 89+ cars unless you are willing to convert to a standalone ECU (ie. Haltec). If the stock ECU does not see the metering oil pump, it will put the car into limp-mode.

Here is the link to the OMP adaptor:

I have it on my 89 and it works great.

Thanks for the post.
That oil injection pump adapter is just what I was looking for. At $82 it's a steal! Sure beats premixing. As far as I'm concerned, that idea went out with the old 2-stroke motorcycles from the '60s.
