Default EGT sensor plugs

As a custom header builder, I often am requested to install 1/8 NPT bungs for dyno work. Obviously, these need to be plugged when not in use. Over the years, I have tried aluminum, SS and MS plugs along with various silicone, anti seize and tightening methods. It always comes down to cussing and praying when its time to romove the seized in plugs. I just spent an hour drilling out the plugs and retapping the bungs on my own headers so my question is does anyone have a solution to this problem? Please real life answers only, no "I read it in Hot Dog magazine" stuff.
