Taps are cheap, just make it bigger.

i dont know but i had a set of harbor freight taps and dies and used a 12x 1.50 tap. it worked for me using the stock bolts.

I did this cause uppon removing the tranny from the junk the rear tranny mount and the driver side mount were the only thing holding the motor/trans as i removed the bolts form the rear trany m ount. Doh!

next time supprt the motor so the weight of the engine doesnt fuc it up on the way out.

Well there is the official word on the subject.

Only problem is that you will never run through 12 of the inserts. I just used two on my car and returned the kit, free thread repair FTW.
