Hi Guys, I am dealing with a De-Smogged 76 that has some stripped threads in the holes in the heads. Two of the plugged holes are fine, but the other two slowly back/slide out, one of them pretty quickly. I was just wondering if I could re thread the holes just slightly larger. Two worries I have are... 1) would the larger diameter cause any problems with other parts of the head, and 2) would the little metal shavings that would come off into the head cause any possible problems or would they just eventually get blown out the exhaust?
Thanks, Jim |
