Default no one in the Tech section is answering, should be easy question

"2 gsr blocks,one has two cracked sleeves and the other one has stripped headbolt threads,but i have heli coiled two of the threads. All internals are good. $300 for both"

the question is, if i were to tap the strippped holes on the one block would i need bigger head studs and if so does anyone make thies studs

Time-Sert is the correct and only way to repair stripped out head bolt holes in an aluminum block.
