DO NOT USE A TAP! The tap will cut materials from an already tapped hole and create a loose fit. Ask me how I know. I chased the head stud holes with a tap and my brand new studs were now loose. You need an appropriate thread "chaser" or the willingness to install time-serts when you screw up the hole with a tap.
