The shop that put the coil in said there are no plugs that are bigger, even from another manufacturer. The coil was so crooked I could see the impression in the plastic washer all on one side.
The problem is if I go to another bigger machine thread the head will be huge for that diameter and it will stick way out of the LU. So I think the good solution is the tapered pipe thread and a NPT plug. We use these things at work to hold thousnands of psi. It should hold fine for under 20. If all goes well it will be recessed just right and there will be very little flow disturbance in front of the prop.
