To all,
I have often wondered if it would make any sense to routinely
helicoil (during a rebuild) all the head bolt holes, intake manifold bolt
holes, and spark plug holes in a Rover/BOP engine in order to avoid future
thread stripping problems. I do not remember anybody talking about this
during the last 3 years or so. Would appreciate hearing from anybody who
would like to comment, either pro or con. Alternative ideas, of course,
are welcome too.
Regards,
Dave Kernberger
