Helicoil Kit for Oil Pan Bolt
Whats up my fellow *****?
So I want to fix a stripped out oil pan bolt, one that needs 7 ft lbs of torque, what size Helicoil kit do I need? Also can I perform the repair with the oil pan in place?
Thanks!

I would get a Helicoil kit to keep it the stock size it will hold the 7 ft of torque with no problems .
