Where can I obtain an AIR cap?

I need a pair of caps for my new headers, since I won't be using the AIR bs on em. I've got Hooker 2055s and I'd like to know where or how to get something to block off those ports. For now I've got TESTORS MODEL PAINT caps on there, and they barely fit (they'll pull off)

I'm actually in the process of putting my 2055's on right now. I took out all the air crap too.

From the research I've done on here, supposedly you can use 1/2" treaded pipe caps. You need the kind that are threaded on the inside (obviously) - not the kind that are plugs.

Home depot or any hardware store should have them. Also, maybe you can paint them with chrome engine enamel so that they more or less match. (that's my plan, anyway....)

Good luck!
