    How would you do this install, that has a 3 ft crawl space?

    Yes i thinking about using a pilot hole. Does anyone know how hard or if it's possible to fix a hole if later you wanted to sell?

    I can drill the hole from inside the crawl space so i don't hit the center of the block. Out of curiosity say i did drill like a 2 inch hole and didn't need it anymore how hard would it be to patch it? or can it be patched? I think it has a parge coat on it.
