Default Tapping VTEC head not working? help

i dont know if im doing this wrong but i can not figure out how to tap the head. the threading wont thread into the head. i have the golden eagle kit with the 1/8 npt and the plug. it looks like a 3/8in drive on the back of the 1/8 npt but i cant figure out a way to do it. i tried using a wrench but i just keeps stripping out the head. help please?

this doesnt make any sense. golden eagle supplies you with a 1/8npt tap and an allen head plug. if you are refering to the tap that has a square end, that is "stripping" out your head, that is its purpose, taken that your doing it to the right hole. I highly recommend you do a little research on how to do a ls/vtec
