HeLp!?


Hello list.. I am back again.. I need some help.. =\ sorry =\ I just
found out my motor should be good because all the bearings were good.
But the heads were cracked.. Bad.. so, I got some new ones from Chirco
In Tempe. And they are nice remanufactured heads.. but I have a prob
with em.. well not the heads.. but the case I guess. Um well. Like 5 of
the studs are STRIPPED?!?!? I dont get it I tightened them in the
correct pattern. and to 27 pounds but 5 of em well.. just kept going and
going and going and just pulled themselves out. =( =..( thais sucks. now
I think I can Helacoil Them.. is this ok? I can tell that the stud comes
really close to the cylender, is it ok to still put the helacoil in if I
am careful? Sorry this is long but I want to do this right. and have
this motor last until I can afford a new one. History on the motor. well
it was rebuilt but I think the Studs were stripped befoore because of 4!
SERIOUS blowbys and my heads cracking all of a sudden..well maybe not
blowbys but it was blowing out of the head around the outer ring ya know
where the valves are and you can tell it was leaking on the head.. eh?
oh well Please give me any info you can because I need this motor to
run. I know never to go to the man I had rebuild my motor though he did
terrible and I had to fix all of his mistakes! he has his own Business
believe it or not! and I had to fix his junk! oh well it is all perfect
now all I have to do is be able to torque the heads!! 

Please help!
