STEP 2
packed the inside of the case with a rag to catch drillings, drilled out the old hold 7/16" then started to tap with the pipe tap.
I went a deep as the tap could go, but its a blind hole so it would not go as fara s I needed. by putting the plug it it sticks out too much.
So back to my shop and my I'll cut 1/4"-1/2" off the tap.
That should get the taper deep enough so the plug will be flush or just recessed.
Also picked up new seals for the prop shaft and drive shaft, a new o-ring and zinc for the carrier.
I'm getting there and it looks like it will work, the pressure test will tell.
