You'll probably need something like this from ClassicVeeDub

Do a search for part number CVD-4022

good luck!

You want to be looking for what they call "Hungry Studs" which are a standard looking stud but they have a Oversized thread on the case end which just winds straight back into the old hole (no taping required) and if alls well you can reset your head tension.
I have previosly used these on one of my own cars and have not had a problem since , but i would probably not recomend this fix for a high compresion motor
And last but not least if you decide to go down this path make sure you get the right length stud

Don't let body work get in the way of real suspension travel

the engines are out sitting on the floor. So I just pull of heads and barrells and how do I get the case savers in Dave? I have 3 engines to do.

Those self-tapping studs work well,
but I aways wonder where all the chips go,
and which stud will be the next to pull.

Yep - they keep nearly-dead stocko engines alive for just that little bit longer. Great idea to change the oil immediatley after they have been installed to help flush out any crap

Screw one in and find out...! As long as the thread is 'oversize' enough to 'self-tap' and get a grip on the case...

Depends.

He now knows they are there, can check the tension and if it works...

Perfect world is a new case, then less perfect is to fix this one.

I used a few of these on a nitros😂engine I used to have in my Manx...(1500 singleport with laughing😂gas bolt on......) and they were bulletproof and allowed me to get more use from the engine before i blew it up.I even kept them when the engine ...er...."broke" and threw everything else away.Worth their weight in gold.
