gutting the proportioning valve

after the "gutting" the rear brake port of the valve and t'ing the front lines together, what kind of plugs do you need to plug off the three empty ports in the prop. valve ? I assume I'd need a flared type of plug to seal up good to withstand all the pressure, but not sure what to get.

I pulled whatever was on the factory plugs out and welded the holes shut, then re-installed. Also i kept both lines attached from the MC as normal.

well, I just finished up today. I ended up just taking out the prop. valve all together. T'd the fronts together, straight lined the rear, and put in the summit adj. valve up front right beside the mc.
