Blocks strpped....
OK first thing I want to make clear this mistake wasn't done, by myself but it seems I'm stuck w/ th damn problem... Theres these two yahoo's I know that we're using my garage for a simple head swap "putting on a V-tec head on the B-16" Somehow down the line of actually putting the new head on, they stripped out the 7th bolt in the torque down pattern... Now w/ honda's can they be re-tapped and have a bigger bolt put in or can it have a homing prob put in it, like you do w/ the v-8's.... or there's option C push the ride out the bay and say HA HA "like Nelson from The Simpsons" Truth to be told I kinda bout C cause it's putting project Tegra on hold....... What to do,What top do....

Ahhh screw that shit.
Before I threw my hands up and walked away from the block, I'd get a heli-coil kit. Instead of simply tapping to a larger size, the insert allows you to use the stock bolt. I'd also give 'em a damned lesson on using a torque wrench since it seems they don't have a damned clue.

Yeah helicoil it. Make sure you get the right thread so you can use the stock Honda head bolt and not some generic bolt. Napa should have the kit

Tight, heli coil, someone else mentioned that to me.... Tho they said it may be a pain in the ass to tighten dawn in the future. But hey that ain't my problem... Hey Bill as for a Torque wrench lessons, I think a lesson in following directions needs to be intended first...1. sweep the floor 2. mop the floor 3. take out teh trash and your car w/ it.... ha ha tha'll learn 'em... lol
