Default Is this the correct fitting?

So I have read where and how to tap the pan but not what size. I plan on running a -10 AN line. The fitting off the turbo is a 1/2 NPT to 10 AN is this the correct size for the pan also? Just seems like a big hole to drill/tap in the pan.

Thanks

Eh, it's going slooooowly lol. Between the SEMA show and a bunch of other BS I haven't had much time to work on it. Plan on dropping my K to do the pan and the solid mounts at the end of the week.

How's yours coming along?

I was going to tap the front of the pan but there just wasnt enough room so I brought the fitting and pan to a welder and told him to make it work. Should get it back in a day or 2.

We have to run the solid mount on the eBay/ptk kit.
