Default SAI plugs

Does anyone have a solution other than the .20 for plugging sai heads (don't believe I have all 4 tubes to do the nickel trick, tossed them as i pulled them except for one)? I have a set of SAI heads about to go back in to non-sai car.

I came across this post about the guy wanting to make some SAI plugs:

I had commented and likely will not be waiting for his solution. I kept one of the stubs and will find a machine shop to make me a set here shortly if I have to.

Mine have freeze plugs jammed in them and the holes filled with JB Weld. I didn’t make that repair but they’ve been going strong for the 16 years + that they have been on the truck and at this point I am certain it’s one of the few things that will NOT fail anytime soon.

I had Roadside Werx send me the 3 other stubs I needed so I can just go get some caps and seal em up that way. This is my wife's daily and don't really feel like something as simple as this becoming an issue if my first plug attempt wasn't great..
