Went to autozone and kragen. Both of them only had T fittings instead of elbows. So I used one of those and capped off an end. paid 10 bucks for a set of miscellaneous T fittings and caps. So I've got spares now. Not the prettiest solution, but 100% functional. Now I can go about really breaking stuff while installing my coils

i wouldn't recommend parts that aid in breaking one's car rather than improve performance or function.
uh. This line pulls a slight vacuum actually. It's not the same as the line that 04 people put breathers and catch cans on. I suspect though, that plugging it would be a bad idea (tm).
