So a few years back I was reinstalling the head on my 92 FJ80, when I fail to incrementally tightened the rocker shaft cap bolts and instead send each bolt all the way down. The pressure from the valve springs pushed the shaft resulting in a few stripped cap bolts. So now I am looking for some advice, can I time-cert/heli-coil new bolts (assume that I will have to repair all the bolt holes), weld in bolt studs, or is the head wasted and I should just look at swapping a V8 motor since the price of a head is ridiculous.
I know time-certs work on cylinder heads bolt thread repair.
Any help will be appreciated.
