Putting aside discussion on whether they're needed...a historics group I'm running with (VRG) is insisting I run with drilled and safety-wired engine and trans drain plug fasteners. In a cursory search through common vendors I'm not able to locate any.

Is anyone aware of pre-drilled engine drain bolt, plate/screen bolt, and trans plugs before I spend the coin on a drill jig?
