I noticed i have a leaking manifold last night. I went to tighten up the bolts and a few of them seem to be stripping out on the inside. Is there a product i can use on them or just drill out and tap bigger? I know for spark plugs you can use the heli coil or whatever.

Exhaust
Anyone know what size the exhaust bolt threads are off top their heads? I wonder if i have to remove the exhaust manifold to use the helicoil. I m gonna guess yes.1990 (LUCIFER 2.0) fully built BP+T with E153, Fueltech FT500, traction control with hopes of 600hp (i drank to much of the KOOL-AID)
