Well I was on my way to getting finished with my head gasket job when I was torquing down the main engine mount eyebolt (timing side into the shock tower) when the bolt got 'loose' on me when I was nearing the proper 67-72 ft-lbs of torque. I pulled the bolt out to find that there were threads left over from the hole riding in the threads grooves on the bolt......
Has anyone dealt with a stripped out shock tower engine mount bolt hole before? Please throw me some ideas people, my car is begging to be driven
