<strong>*I would suggest bagging the Helicoil idea all together and install SB Chevy rocker studs instead. Got this tip from Tim @DOA as well as Ted-Engnbldr. Ted sent me up 4 of the studs with nuts, I retapped the stripped holes to 7/16", applied a little sealer to the threads as insurance and was done in less than 30 minutes doing 2 holes. No problems at all. ~Darin</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helv, Helvetica, Sans">How did you use a GM rocker arm stud to replace the exhaust manifold bolts?

Don't GM rocker arm studs look like this ?
