Anyone remember what size bolt they are from memory?
The bolt nearest the radiator at the front right of the head (as you look at it) has rusted through the bottom of the cylinder head casting, and will need filling and re-tapping, and the one nearest the bulkhead (back of the head) has ripped the thread clean out of the head due to rust (not over tightening)
Any ideas on where is the cheapest place to get some suitable size helicoil or similar kits?
Cheers guys
