Something very bad happened yesterday my main cap bolts were over tightened and the threads were striped. do i get the block tapped? how is this prosses done? when i do that are the arp bolts just going to fit. or do i have to get bigger custom bolts.what do they do to that block for a situation like this? thanks

they cant tap new threads

you "might" be able to have new threads tapped into the block. but im not to sure.

your gonna have to take it to a good machine shop to have them maybe heli-coil it or maybe even install a time sert. after that it would be a good idea to have the main bores line honed.
