Went to install my motor and tranny into a shell i picked up and discovered this!
It doesn't seem like you can use a helicoil since its just a nut welded then it goes hollow in the body. Wanting to find out if time serts are worth the buy or i should just up the size and go 11x1.25 or 12x1.25

Update- Couldnt find 12x125 anywhere so i went with a course 12x1.5 worked out great,had to order bolts online since almost no place carries grade 10.9 metric... stupid merica!
