Engine assembly questions

Where did you guys get your bottom taps from? Ive been to a few stores and snap-on and they dont have them. Then I looked on this site http://www1.mscdirect.com/cgi/nnsrhm and there are soo many options I dont know what i should get.

its a unusual size. I cant see it in their list either. Maybe its best to email and se if they can order it. It might be expensive.. i loaned one from the workshop.

I bought a plug tap,(not a pipe tap) from Snap On and ground it into a bottom tap.
