1 inch steel caps from the depot worked perfectly.

Glad you found something that worked for you. Were they already black or did you paint them to match the crossover and frame and keep them from rusting?

They were zinc plated steel caps so I used a self etching primer first then put on a coat of high temp exhaust paint. They popped right in and matched the crossover perfectly.
