I just completed the task of up-drilling those 5/8 holes to 3/4, not for conduit, but for larger bushings. Go to Harbor freight and buy a 3/4 inch max step drill for $7.00 and install it into a drillbit extender. I already had a quarter inch one, and had to drill out the female end a tad to accept the 1/4 inch HEX on the step drill. If you don't already own a drill bit extension, buy one a HF, you'll use it countless times during your build.
With the 3/4 inch step drill/ extension rig, just up-drill the inboard rib, thru that to number 2 rib, thru that to number 3 rib, etc.
De-bur the holes, and your done.
