: I have a stripped out head bolt it is in the back corner on the starter side (L134). What is the best way to fix? Would a heli coil work? Thanks in advance for any help
: tf

A helicoil may work if there is enough meat left for helicoil threads to work.There is another thread fix called a Keensert. It has more side wall that will take the torque of the head bolt. These should be availible from any " good" fastner dealer or engine rebuild shop.
