Drilling A 2 Hole CLE

Has anybody added the extra 2 holes converting a 2 hole CLE case to a four hole case.
Any reccomendations, thoughts comments. I know it can be done but what are the pitfalls other than letting me do it with a windy drill !

Not if the motor isnt geting enough water
At the height I want to run 2 hole cases tend to run out of cooling but 4 holes are fine. Actually a 2 hole would be OK but not for sustained periods fine for a blast but thats about it. I dont want to fit a remote pickup yet as reports on the 4 hole are promising
