I know Porsches have been using them for years and years.

I'm up for breakfast at Baji's Saturday the 23rd. That way I can sleep in to prepare myself for BBQ #1 in Glen Ellen later in the day and keep the peace in my 'hood. Some numb nuts has an alarm that goes off *anytime* my engine starts up. So a little later is better.

Dave, I am happy to hear that your mechanic got your beast back on the road so quickly. I've had good results with heli-coils in the past, but TimeSerts sound like a real improvement. I wonder what my ole Shelby engine engine uses? Rich

Rich, it probably doesn't use or need any thread inserts unless some numbnut inadvertently pulled a stud while torquing down the rocker assembly or the heads.

I have a graduation at San Francisco State in the morning at 9:30 am. I plan on breakfast at 7:30 at Louis' Restaurant next to the Cliff House 902 Point Lobos Ave, San Francisco, CA‎ - "Louis' is located on the west end of San Francisco, near a rocky point called Point Lobos, the most western point of the San Franciscan peninsula. It has a nice view. See.

I guess I will miss you guys and Alice.
