The thing's already tapped, that's the problem.

There is a random FC coil bolted to the driver's fender.

Suds:
Those are not jumpers. They are fusible links. They burn up when the blow. Replace them with FC fuses, the FC fuses fit right in.

If you need a new crossmember, my GSL is getting it's crossmember removed when the FC subframe goes in.

I gave your fuel pump and FPR to Jason. Next time you see him get them. Otherwise, if I pas through I'll pick em up and bring em up.. I figured he might see you before me.

Whenever I get a little less busy, I'll come up and help you.

Dude, that would be most excellent! Let me know how much you want for it.

I talked to him today. I'll probably go pick the stuff up from CP later this week if the mood strikes.

Awesome dude! Whenever you have time you are more than welcome to come up. Rotor *vs* Piston is also more than welcome. I need all the help I can get.

My neighbor came through with the 1/2" NPT plugs.

They look similar to the following ones except they have a 3/8" socket drive hole instead of the allen socket drive hole.





(note: I used permatex high temp thread sealant to seal the plugs)
here is the first install pic:


second pic from the 'front'. you can see the 3/8" socket drive hole:




and the third and final pic showing how the plugs are flush:
