it did seem to tighten up alright, but i wouldent be suprised if it did pop out again, then it will deff need a helicoil, but i havent done any helicoils before so i dunno what i need/how to do it, ive probably got a mate who could help, but he's always busy.......

i see.....i did have a good look around it, and it seemed alright? i have got a few spare heads i could pull one off..... but it doesent seem worth taking it off now, until i get a helicoil kit?

Its an 8.3mm drill size...
if it hasnt snapped the rocker shaft you would be very lucky. check for hairline cracks in it. You need a m8 helecoil kit. Dont risk anything else. I was lucky that my bolts although ripped out were just bouncing about in the stripped hole and not got jammed up inside the head. Helecoil the lot. its very easy compared to doing exhaust stud thread replacements http://www.toolsnextday.ltd.uk/Helic...icoil_kits.htm
