I am not going to use a speedometer as it is race only. Thought that it may be possible to remove the gear from the trans and find a screw on cap.

No info on a screw on cap but Munroes 727 bible states a 1&49/64" freeze plug. On your gram scale (my ten dollar Harbor Freight one works great ) see how many grams you are eliminating going from the alum speedo adapter to a Dorman steel freeze plug live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth
