FWIW, I'd look into a helicoil - I personally haven't used them, but I've heard they work pretty good. That plate above the rear of the oil pan is an alloy, therefore easily stripped out. It seems t

I'd give re-tapping a try before going onto the helicoil. If you are going to continue doing work on the car, you will need to pick up a tap and die set. As a set you can get them pretty reasonably,

I used to race a Spit, and we had to remove the a lot for maint & R/R. I have repaired lots of these sealing blocks in many ways, with oversize bolts, studs, epoxy (JB Weld), etc. The heli-coil is a

I've had to deal with stripped water pump studs on my '73 Spit. I used Helicoil inserts to do the fix. You can buy the kit at your local hardware or auto store. Basically all you do is drill the thr
