what would be the best way to dril and tap the side of a SBC head? i have the heads and id like to run a serpentine setup on them but they arent drilled for it as they are older heads. Im not really steady with a drill and i really really would like to avoid screwing up if at all possible so question is whats the best method here? anyone have the know how on what to do or the resources to do it?

Steady hand and a level bench, all while using a drill with a built in level....maybe.Originally posted by jakes_GSXR View Post
It's all over once you drill into the cooling jacket. I talked to Tyler about this, he talked about opening up the valves with guide work, etc. Everything he wants done to these heads should be in the $400-$500 range.
