Question smog eliminator kit.

im wanting to get rid of my smog pump when i install my procharger. its not being used anyways. my question is what do i do with the tubes that run to the back of the heads. does kit come with block off plates, or do i jus cap off tubes. ive never really messed with fords other than few cam swaps. go easy on the laughs i know how to turn a wrench just not sure about this.

I found a pair of bolts that threaded into the back of the heads to plug those holes...Used some anti-seize and snugged them right up.

Yes. the holes are threaded. You will see when you get the emissions tubes off. They are attached by a smaller bolt in a hole above the actual emission port...but the port itself is indeed threaded.

yeah they are threaded but odds are you will have to clean the threads out. The ports are you usually clogged with carbon builld up

Summit is friendly enough to also list the bolt size.
