I searched, but no luck on specifics.
I'm going to open up the holes for an oil tank for my conversion, can anyone tell me what size hole saws are required? Thanks, Kev (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) |

NONE! Hole saws make horrible holes the have very jagged edges and aren't even round in most cases. Use a carbide cutter in a drill or die grinder to carefully 'file' away the metal. Use a compass to draw the circles. Makes for a very original looking modification and doesn't really take any longer.

Oh, and BTW, the measurements were taken by me off a real six.
