I am thinking of removing the air pump and all the bits that go with it so I might get some more horse power.

Does anyone know the P/N and where I can buy the 4 head plugs from.

Thanks Felix

Nope they are 7/16 UNF.
Grubscrews are expensive this size, I use old seatbelt bolts and cut em off flush. :)

I found the pipes into the head all blocked.Thi sdecided that the pump had to go.
The air pump and all associated bits have been removed.
Thanks Kevin,I plugged the holes in the head with seat belt bolts I had.
