You need 2, one either end of the main gallery.

If they are a grub screw style allen head type, you can just cut them down to suit with a hacksaw

Mitsi Evo 7, 911, Cossie. & all the chavs ...... won no problem

what you need is 4 X taperd 1/4" BSP
allen socket blanking plugs and tap,
2nd tap

use a 11.5 mm drill extract the plugs easy they fall out, now tap the hole its a shade oversize but leaves well enough meat on the threads too make a perfect seal use some thread sealing compound when its time to fit them

also you need 2 X taperd plugs the same as above 1/8" BSP plugs this time and tap

I got mine from a vauxhall main dealer, there are oil gallery or water gallery plugs on a nova. Fitted a treat to my block.
