best is too get a shop to drill those hole out to accept the mercury pvs plugs.

Thanks Steve do you know what size hole diameter that would be?...I am sure the prop shop would know but I think the current hole size maybe too large for the PVS plugs...

Anytime you are using JB weld to fill, I always wait until it gets like soft clay before applying. The holes for vent plugs on Merc props have a machined flat so it can retain the insert. Merc vent plugs fit into a .690 hole
