Lol. To be fair, it was his threaded plugs that gave me the idea to go look for an off-the-shelf solution.

Had I known of an off-the-shelf solution, them threaded ones wouldn't have happened!

No, they are steel. Also, mine came from LSxelleration, if that helps.

Too late for me, but looking back i could have found a ball bearing that had a snug fit...
Would have been easier if my block was aluminum though...

Gentlemen, I know this thread has been dormant for 2-1/2 years, but I have a question. And it is stupid one: Are the A37 bearing rollers not suitable for plugs in an aluminum block?

I am working on the L94 in my 2013 Escalade, and am installing the VLOM Mod from Crazy Performance Repair. I also want to install the A37 bearing rollers as plugs in the towers. However, rereading this thread, it implies that the rollers are to be used in cast iron blocks.

Thanks for your time!
