    Adding a Guage port

    Anyone know if it is possible to drill and tap the side of a vertical adapter to accept a pressure guage?

          Ok this is a noob question, but im pulling my hair out.

          What drill bit do you use for a 1/8 npt tap? I either lost the right one, or just have too many and I cant figure it out.
