Any good way to put the freeze plug back in the back side of the head.

So my buddy had his KA24det s13 on the dyno and blew out the freeze plug on the back of the head. There's not a whole lot of room to put it in with the motor in. So I was wondering if there was a good trick to get it in.

you will need a new plug...medium prybar...and a small socket that fits the inside diamater of the plug..the hood needs to be removed..you can then try to pry the plug back in place by setting the socket inside the plug then prying against the firewall to secure it "you will need sometype of metal to keep damaging the firewall"..you might allso be able to tap it in using a cam like action with this set up...thats all i can think of...good luck
