Thanks and I decided to create it because after watching many videos on the topic. I felt they were to straight forward and missing some crucial challenges that one might encounter with a car that has 200,000 miles.

Having to use a Helicoil for example was the last thing I thought would happen.

I was such a nervous wreck drilling into the engine block. The last thing I wanted to do was ruin the same threads I had just repaired by over tightening the bolt. I have no ideas why this was stripped. Do you have any ideas?

This might be the most intimidating part for a beginner.
