Tip of the day
I have this 1 1/2" rubber plumbing cap w/ hose clamp from a home project. A few weeks ago I pulled the 330 from a project car. The motor is locked up and I had to pull the torque converter with the motor. Anyway, I'm out in the garage looking at the motor and it dawns on me that the rubber cap might fit the TC to prevent spills. Well it fit like it was made for it! I think I paid like $2 at Home Depot for the cap. Here's a pic. Sorry, it's a little dark.

I thought about it after I posted, the cap is for 1 1/2" pipe & it measres a little larger than that. Also the TC in the picture is for a Jetaway.
