Hey All;

Finished installing the transmission governor and took it for a
ride. Everything is working like it should be. I did manage to strip 2
exhaust bolts so I need to fix that. Should I use heli-coils for this?
It's the block that stripped and not the bolts themselves. Thanks for
all of the help and tips while I was fixing this problem.

I also had one of the bolt holes to the exhaust strip on me. I used a tap
drill for a 7/16" bolt and than rethreaded the hole. Exhaust manifold
bolt hole was big enough for the 7/16" bolt so I didn't have to drill for a
clearance hole.
