You need a competent shop to align and drill the plates.

Maybe someone else can chime in as I am not that experienced a machinist. When I welded a coolant lip and machined it back down my endmill didnt even scratch the iron. Might have to heat it up or something before your drill it out.

Its done back in car alll sweeeeeet as
I did take a few pics. The process took me about 6 hours i realy took my time lol useing the crappy drill press
Had to lighn the head with table using shims to be 100%
The over sized bolt kit is very good they said to use a 13mm drill for it i relise why now the holes in the housings and plates are all miss alighned so by making it massive you can garantee the bolt will fit threw
my advice would be to use dowels to hold i housing between 2 plates and drill threw the lot in 1 go. my drill press would only allow me to go half way at a time ( when drilling use no fluid as will eat the drill bitgo in dry and moderate speed)
my hole size is 12.5 and it has a little movment in it i would have liked it tighter but to much movment in drill head
