All of mine are cross threaded. Just use whatever the next size up is.

Yeah that got stripped on my crx once. Almost made me sick to my stomach because i don't like doing thread repairs especially on such an important hole. I can't remember the size though . I have the tap at home I just don't remember what size it is

I am actually going to my friends house to watch the cubs game after work. If nobody has answered by then I will check for you. I'm sure someone else knows though. I'm pretty sure it's 10x1.25
