Anyone able to sort a helicoil?

Speaking of Nitrous kits....


If you don't already have one I could do you a great price on the 4 Cyl, direct port wet kit I've got sat in my garage...

Hmmm...

Just trying to work out where to hide the bottle??

Perhaps I could pass it off as a large rear shock reservoir?

The kit comes with a small bottle designed to fit on the bike - it's about the size of a hand helf fire extinguisher.

Im damned if I would fit a spark-plug helicoil head-on.

Unless I had a small but highly trained & obedient team of ants who would venture backwards and forwards bringing me the drillings & swarf from inside the cylinder.

+1. Dammed I i would either. You can't insert the helicoil into the existing thread as the helicoil is too large. You need to drill out the thread and re-tap it with the correct helicoil tap.

You wanted to find out about engines??

Fit a new camchain (depending on mileage) whilst you are in there, an extra head gasket will drop the compression nicely for the Garrett turbocharger, oversize valve ready for the bigbore convo & you can drill and tap the inlet's for the nitrous kit?

Its all about the multitasking.

Ohhhh honda Camchain.... that'll be an engine stripdown then.

I bought it from Ebay a few years back, intending to use it on a car. But ended up doing other things with the car and was going to use it on a bike, but then sold that bike!

The kit was all working when it came off the bike I got it from, and since then has sat in a box in my garage pretty much.
