As for coolant nipples in the irons, I pulled/cut them out (I think there are three...), tapped a thread, and inserted brass barbed nipples. I've had those damned things break on me and they're a pain to fix while the motor's in the car, so I did it during my build. I would recommend it. I think you'll need a couple 1/4" fittings and a 3/4"? fitting (and taps to match, of course). It's just preventative and not really necessary. You have to be careful tapping the big one, you need to oil it and back it out frequently. That one took me like an hour or so to tap.
