Convert from ABS or plug non-ABS calipers? 200 1992

Has anyone ever either:

1) Converted an ABS car to non-ABS; or
2) Plugged one line of a non-ABS caliper and used it?

I'm mostly curious as to whether the calipers are the same internally. The rebuild kits are the same for all but that's just seals - doesn't mean the internal passages are the same.

ABS Calipers are F $53, R $44 each from eEuroparts. The car's not worth a $200 investment so I think I'll just scrap it. If I could have installed some used calipers I'd have given it a shot.
