So the proflo valve started leaking on me recently, I just decided to replace it with a Bullett BOV. However, my proflo was connected to the intake tube inlet rather than having an air filter on the other end of it. I'm having a hard time finding a cap to essentially just plug up the intake tube port.

I measured it and it comes out roughly to 42-44mm, but can't really find a cap that big. Anyone have any ideas, kind of stuck on how to plug it up.

So just cram a rubber plug essentially in it? My fear was having it being sucked into the impeller lol, which is why I was looking for a cap so I could still put a clamp on it.

Get a 40-some mm hex plug from Grainger (probably cost you 10-12 bucks) and some sealant

Are you on a blow through setup so your car won't be missing that air since you're venting to atmosphere now?

I had a rubber cap is some sorts that shoved in there with RTV and put some bolts through it as well. Been awhile since that but I might have pictures…I’ll update if I can find them.

I picked up a cap from Home Depot back in the day I think. That and a hose clamp kept things sealed.
