Default Drilling and tapping the stock locker

Back years ago when I had an ax10 I drilled and tapped the stock green locker just like what vp sells now. Has anyone tried this with the cross lockers that come in a wraith kit? I believe they are sintered correct? Can the sintered metal be tapped?

That's not the weak point of the locker. The weak point is the tangs that stick up to engage the cup.
