Of Course that info conflicts with the chart in Machinery's handbook. For a 12 x 1.5 thread, the Z drill would be acceptable. My apologies ROB! |

My apologies ROB! the Snap On metric tap and die set will give you the drill bit of Z to be used, which I did, and I then tapped it with a 12x1.5 tap, its been on my car for years now I was going off real world expierence, not internet mumbo jumbo. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png |
I hardly call MACHINERY's HANDBOOK Mumbo-Jumbo!
|
I would not call my Snap On tap and die set incorrect either
|
so either should work fine then?
|
yes, for what you are doing
