So, I'm getting my '75 2.0L back together and want to eliminate the A.I.R system. What are guys doing to eliminate the tubes in the cylinder heads? Install and cap them off or install something to block off the passage in place of the tube?

not long after I bought my 75 I had a sudden rattle and loud noise- not knowing what it was it stopped, got a trailer and towed it down to the local shop- it didn't take too long for Bob to diagnose my problem- This AIR system was removed and one the bolts used to cap it had backed out- lodged somewhere against the tin making that rattling noise - before that I didn't know anything about a smog system- that's been atleast 5 years plus now- pretty sure they reinstalled that thing with loctite
