You will need a 5/16-18 tap & a 5/16" set screw.
Tap it just deep enough for the set screw to seat good.
The red arrow is the accumulator feed hole that needs to be tapped & plugged.

When blocking the 2-3 accumulator feed port, should you remove the spring under the accumulator piston?

Before anyone gets their panties in a wad over such a big 3rd feed hole......The plate in the pic is from a '70 Cadillac TH400 that had a factory 6 friction Direct Drum & has a .175" 3rd feed hole stock.

Regarding blocking the 2-3 accumulator vs. leaving it functional and using a larger 3rd feed hole, do you have a preferred approach? What are the tradeoffs?
