If you're looking to buy a tap, the size is M10X1.5. A normal HSS tap should be plenty good unless you're machining an exotic metal.

I'd say that's more a combo countersink in a deep counterbore.

Here is my set-up: password jdm shift knob, just a cheap ebay shift extender, and an owl shift boot that I made myself.

I just ordered a revo short shifter and cannot wait for it to come.

Shift Knobs - JHPUSA

Here's a bunch for you to look through. Skunk2 is fairly good for the price and weight. The Honda HOP one is nice. It'll be up to your preference though since a good few of them are similar in terms of weight. If you want something heavy, you might have to look up the individual weights.

The Spoon duracon isn't bad. You might also like wooden ones.
