360 build thread
Got it repaired, used the head for guide during the drilling (good tip yellow rose) Probably should've for the tap but everything ended up working out. In hindsight i shouldve drilled farther down prior to tapping but i followed the directions and it almost screwed me. Didnt realize how mich the helicoil stretches out during installation. Had to file a ridge out of the top of the bolt on the deck surface, it happened when the block stripped.
Final assembly with 100ftlbs, whew glad i dodged that bullet.
