      Hi all, 
      
      
      After having my heads reworked by RAM, I tried to tighten the nuts to prope
      r torq and the stud backed out (on #3 on the right side).=C2- I drilled i
      t out and put a helicoil in its place but ran into the same problem.=C2- 
      I was getting pretty nervous about this time for fear that I screwed the po
      och.=C2- Time-sert to the rescue!=C2- Because it was already oversized,
       I moved up to the Big-sert and with baited breath attached the head with p
      roper torqs.=C2- No problem!=C2- Will keep you informed as to the long 
      term success of the repair.=C2- Can't recommend Time-sert and it's big co
      usin Big-sert too highly!

      I did the same thing and never had any problems.  Some use these as a 
      better alternate to cast threads.
      
      You=99ll not have any problems either.

      Hi all,
      
      
      After having my heads reworked by RAM, I tried to tighten the nuts to 
      proper torq and the stud backed out (on #3 on the right side).  I 
      drilled it out and put a helicoil in its place but ran into the same 
      problem.  I was getting pretty nervous about this time for fear that I 
      screwed the pooch.  Time-sert to the rescue!  Because it was already 
      oversized, I moved up to the Big-sert and with baited breath attached 
      the head with proper torqs.  No problem!  Will keep you informed as to 
      the long term success of the repair.  Can't recommend Time-sert and it's 
      big cousin Big-sert too highly!
