The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop Brass expansion plug kit came with steel plugs?

I just installed the same kit on my 216. The side plugs were brass and they go in with a snug fit. The steel ones are the convex ones that need to be deformed a bit. They go in against a shoulder. I am not sure that brass would work for those plugs.

I would assume that when you paint the engine, you paint the plugs too. That is what I did. I don't see any reason not to.
