What is the bung/nozzle thread size for vishnu's chargepipe?

Does anyone know the thread size of the bungs/nozzles in the vishnu chargepipe? I don't need to know where to buy the nozzles, just curious about the actual thread size.

1/8NPT for the aquamist adapter bung and most other nozzles utilize the same thread/patern

I'm looking to remove my nozzles and just cap them off, I'm not using meth any more. Do they sell anything that might screw right in there flush?

Google aquamist thread pitch and size. I think it's M6 x 0.5mm but dont quote me.

It won't be 1/8 NPT as 1/8 NPT is standard for all other methanol kits except aquamist.

Aquamist/Vishnu is different.

If you can't find the answer, I would bring the pipe to something like home depot and start plugging in bolts, seriously OR bring the nozzle to home depot and find the female end.

EDIT:

According to this thread its M8 x 0.75 thread and plugs are available by aquamist/howerton.

I have the Aquamist Bung plugs and used them when I relocated my nozzles.

Easy peasy and they work great

howerton engineering sells the plugs. They are a non standard size and you won't find them at most hardware stores.

They are cheaper to purchase from Vishnu. Howerton chargers like $12 shipping. Vishnu charges like $4 or 6. To ship.
