So i pulled my motor and trans today because i want to go back to FI, before i do that i need to fix an intake stud hole. The hole is stripped and i was gonna use a timesert to repair it. The intake stud is M8 x 1.25, so im planning on purchasing that timesert kit, my only question is will the 11.7mm length be good, or should i purchase longer inserts?

Thanks Everyone

That's a particularly thin area, so measuring the depth is in order. Might be OK, might not. Don't want an insert that will expand and lock into thin air, do we?

The Cap'n

i hear you on that captain. another question, if the insert is the correct size, i have to drill a larger hole and then use the included tap. should i worry about possibly drilling to far down?
