Hey cr,

I am in the process of having a heli coil installed in my cylinder head to take
care of stripped spark plug threads.  I have searched the archives for info
about heli coils and came across a ton of messages about stripped oil drain
plugs.  I didn't read many of these so I can't tell you what they said, but
check out the archives.  Lots of info on this subject in there.

good luck,
Jake
