Air cooler Heat exchanger plugs for the plugsheet on Header

(OP)
Hi Guys,
I'm on the design of an Air Cooled Heat Exchanger as per ASME SECT VIII Div.1, 2015. This design is based on an existant Air cooler that need to be replaced. I Already designed the Headers per appendix 13 but I am little bit lost on the selection of plug for the plug sheet.

The original design propose plugs with the following data:
Plug Size INCH 1-1/8"
Thread Type-UNF
No of thread per inch-12

This plug are not B16.11. How do I check pressure rating? Which tipe of calculations do I need to perform?
