only one thing- they are NOT freeze plugs. sure, they can and sometimes will pop out when you freeze your block, but this is not what they are designed for, and will not nessicarily save your block. they are casting plugs, put in place so that they can drain the core sand out of the cast block at the foundry. that is why they are there.
that said, you may need to replace them.


good luck,mo
