Just a thought, on another forum, a boxer BMW one, it was suggested to use a helicoil first as they use less of the surrounding structure than a
timesert. If and when the helicoil dies then you still have enough alloy left to use a timesert. If the timesert dies.... well you are
screwed.....If the threads are lubed and not tightened with a bloody big grip the helicoil should work fine.
Ive not used a timesert, Ive used a number of helicoils and found them to work well.
My opinion and worth what you paid for it

I have had a time sert put in.
Quick and easy
From what i have read a lot of racers have new heads done straight away with time serts.
I dont think there is a chance of the time sert dieing
I would (did) just go with that one.
You can but it
