Asa general rule, the size of the drill bit required can be easily estimated by subtracting the pitch of the thread from its diameter. A ½ tap has several types and depending on that, and you need to choose the size of the bit. A ½-13 NC tap requires a 27/64″ size, ½-20 NF, and ½-24 NS requires a 29/64″ size.

andneed to drill and tap the inlet manifold for the pressure sensor. As Steve noted the concensus is that the reaming isn't needed for this kind of application. There's no direct UK/European equivalent of the 1/8 NPT thread but it turns out NPT taps are not difficult to get here. An 8.5mm drill bit is OK in place of the R size drill bit.
