I see by tons of posts previous that there is no problem at all running a turbo head on your N/T car. That's all good, I was fortunate enough to get my hands on a good turbo head for pretty cheap. I have been told that there is an oil line on the head that needs to be blocked off in some way and I am looking for some suggestions on what to use to block it off. Any advice welcome. Thanks.
 
Why would you drop in a turbo head? Only difference is the cams. If that is your reasoning, you should consider just swapping cams. That will be easier.

Just use a proper sized bolt with some RTV sealant around the inside of the head. Make sure the bolt goes flush against the head so it will stop the leaks.
 
It's not a matter of choice or performance. I went to the junkyard. That's what they had, so that's what I got. I'm not going for mods or anything, just a matter of circumstance.
