hey bro, do you mean the actual head bolts or the rocker shaft bolts. if its just the rocker shaft bolt hole in the head itself, then yep, a helicoil will be sweet, but if its an actual
head bolt holes in the block then it is mostly wiser to get an insert made up to thread in, you need the origional thread drilled out, re-tapped over size then the insert is threaded in
and your bolt is ready to go in! by crikey!
either way get an engine machinist to do the work and recomend the type of repair, its not economicly viable to do the job yourself as the helicoil/insert kits are not cheap and come case
specific, eg only contain the gear for a 10x1.25 insert. and my motto for today :) you cant stuff it up if you dont do it yourself :) cher cher bro.
catch you laters man. sweet dreams too, as teratonga said you check this every 2 minuites... at least...
