Drill and tapping 10 bolt case for upper mount.

[LowBuckX]

Just brainstorming planning my upper link mount on my 10 bolt. Id like to not weld onto the cast housing so I figure I could drill and tap the case for 2 bolts in front and reinforce the inspection cover and make it one with the pivot braket.

Does bolting the front to the housing sound like a viable plan?

Any suggestions for drilling and tapping cast iron?
