So im in the process of repairing about 8 cam cap stripped threads in my cylinder head with heli-coils. Not sure how so many got stripped, last time these bolts were touched was 8+ years ago when I installed new cams. Is it possible for the bigger cams to put enough stress on the bolts to cause them to strip?
I guess my question is, should I just go ahead and heli-coil all the bolt holes to be safe or just repair the stripped ones?
Any input is much appreciated.
