OMP Blockoff Question...
That will work but way cheaper at McMaster.com:
Qty 5 inserts) M6x1.00 9.0 Long = $6.99 (part number 93914A230 ) <- should be long enough.
Qty 1 tap) M6x1.0 STI = $13.96 (part number 91709A202)
The only thing you do not get without the kit would be the insertion tool. You can use an old M6 screw for an insertion tool. Screw the insert onto the end of the screw and slowly turn it into the pre-tapped hole until the insert is just under the surface. Remove the screw and knock off the tang on the bottom of the insert.
This pic shows the tang and how it sits on the bottom of the insertion tool. The tool is nothing special. It just has an ground away area for the tang to sit in to.

the only place you can put the jets on a holley setup are below the carburetor on the intake manifold. you can simply drill and tap the manifold for the jets but if you do so you should probably use the 2nd generation oil metering jets since they were designed to sit in a vacuumed environment where the stock carbed system the metering jets were before the throttle plates. the FC metering jets have check valves internally to keep the vacuum from emptying out the line under hard decel and nothing to push under heavy loads.
