oil pump blockoff

[bansheejoel]

I know its not a banshee and some of you will give me a hard time but, i just got a mint 82' yamaha tri moto to use as a pitbike. I disconnected the oil pump and my question is....can i just block off the oil lines and be good or do i have to take the pump out and try to make a block off plate? I know alot of guys on blasters just pull the oil lines and put a screw or bolt in it so it doesnt suck air and they seem to do good........I was thinking about filling the holes with JB weld...thanks

not sure in that specific case, but i know on waverunners when you take the pump off, you need to block it, or the motor can get fucked up.
