Default Tap or use nut on engine mount?

Another option I did on my kaos. drill the hole slightly larger than the thread. On the underneath side partially drill a wider hole to accomodate a blind nut of the appropriate size (6-32 etc). drill only deep enough to get the blind nut to set in completely. Press the blind nut into the fiber/plastic mount with a vise. A tight easy solution and no back side nuts to have to mess with in a tight cowl
