The reason I drill a small hole and forced a tapered punch in was tofold the metal inward for material for the pipe tap to force the threads outward. All I used was a 90 fitting on the top and ran the line down to the underside of the floor . Exactly what the factory did for 67-70 cars with the metal tube. I may have a 70 dart tube but I do not have a cap to go with it..
