The banjo bolt connecting the turbo oil feed line to the head stripped the thread in the head. It has been over a year since I had taken the bolt out. I tried to torque it to 12 ft/lbs and it just kept spinning. Im going to try tapping the hole and make a new banjo bolt to fit. Does anyone know what size bolt would be the next biggest to tap it for?? If anyone has any suggestions, I would like to hear them. I need this done quick, BTW.

 

helicoil it.

Thats a good idea but I dont have time to order anything. Thanks for taking the time to find that though.

 

It's not an idea, it's the solution short of a new head.

 

Fixed the problem, I just tapped the head to 7/16",made a banjo bolt in less than 30 minutes with a drill press, got some copper washers and everything is working great since yesterday.
