RE: [T3] head nut stripping


> What do ya think?

I think you are totally bummed if you want to fix it right (read: total
rebuild).  You are okay if you want to do it cheesy, but not right -- that
would be selftapping headstuds which were designed for this common problem.
This is a temporary fix at best and implies your engine has been overheated
and abused OR nearly dead.  People often give this a 6mos-1year prognosis.
Monitor your oil pressure closely if you don't do a rebuild.  

Have fun!
