Default stripped starter bolts

long story short, i just bought a GSR hatch and the starter was replaced but wasnt tightened down all the way and after a few days it finally came loose and stripped the threads in the block, tomorrow im gonna re-tap it, but im wondering, will it be strong enough? or will it strip again over time? any helpful input is appreciated

mine was retapped and it's fine. You could go with a slightly larger bolt... if you can find it.
