I think it would depend entirely on the size of bolt you would use. Note the coil kits usually don't come with the drill bit you need to oversize the holes before tapping for the coil, and it's usually some oddball 64ths size. 

FWIW, it sounds like a good idea as I have K&N filters on my BJ8, and they are indeed a PITA to install (unfortunately, I'd still have to deal with the stupid little acorn nuts on the outer side of the filters).

Subject: [Healeys] Helicoils in SU carbs 

Who has used helicoils in their carb bodies so one doesn't have to put nuts on the back of the carbs when installing K&N or other air cleaners? Fiddling with the bolt head or nut from the back side of the carb is a pain. I believe I have read that some have used helicoils in the carb so solve this problem. 

What size helicoil is used? In my case I am using HD6 carbs if that matters. 

Thank you!

Lin,

On my BJ7, I simply ran a tap thru the hole to create threads in the body.
I measured the original hole size with a drill until I found one that would
not pass thru.  One fraction size larger worked for me.  Then I used 2
bolts on each carb that matched the tap size.

Keep it simple.

Lin, You raise a great question.
 Why not just cut threads into the casting? Couldn't one use a tap to cut
threads? It would be a brilliant solution to a complete PITA situation.

If the bolt he wants/needs to use fits through the hole in the carb--it must if you have to put a nut on it--making the hole bigger with a tap won't help much. 

I don't trust putting steel bolts into aluminium anyway; I'm going to be putting helicoils into the mounting bosses for my clutch slave cyl while the engine/gearbox is out.

Lin, 

On my BJ7, I simply ran a tap thru the hole to create threads in the body. I measured the original hole size with a drill until I found one that would not pass thru. One fraction size larger worked for me. Then I used 2 bolts on each carb that matched the tap size. 

Keep it simple.

                        On my BJ7, I simply ran a tap thru the hole to
                        create threads in the body.  I measured the
                        original hole size with a drill until I found
                        one that would not pass thru.  One fraction size
                        larger worked for me.  Then I used 2 bolts on
                        each carb that matched the tap size.  <br>

                              <div>I think it would depend entirely on
                                the size of bolt you would use.   Note
                                the coil kits usually don't come with
                                the drill bit you need to oversize the
                                holes before tapping for the coil, and
                                it's usually some oddball 64ths size.</div>

                              <div>FWIW, it sounds like a good idea as I
                                have K&amp;N filters on my BJ8, and they
                                are indeed a PITA to install
                                (unfortunately, I'd still have to deal
                                with the stupid little acorn nuts on the
                                outer side of the filters).</div>
