i personally dont like heli-coils. I like to use timeserts. they cost a little more, but they last waaaaaay longer.

Search for them online. I believe Snap-on, Matco, ect sells them. Also, try Full-Torque, Permanent Thread Replacement and ++ TIME-SERT Threaded inserts for stripped threads, threaded inserts, thread repair stripped sparkplug's, Ford sparkplug blowouts, threaded inserts threaded, repair stripped threads, stripped threads, inserts threaded inserts, Ford spark plug repair,
