how hard is it to tap it?
you can't go to sears or lowes and buy a tap kit, all you do is drill a hole and then you can use a T tap or just put the tap in the drill, either way those are tools you should have...but i guess weigh the costs of the tools vs the cost of the shop,

have you called automotive shops?

why?
i just told him, it isn't hard, drill a hole slightly smaller than the tap, i can never remember the sizes, and then use a t-tap, its the safest, and bada-bing your gold
worst comes to worst, go to home depot they can show you

All you have to do is eat your fill of oysters. You'll be able to tap it all night.




Sorry. Somebody had to say it.
