Wurth seem very difficult to deal with.

All I want is the drill, tap & counterbore kit to enable me to put 8 timeserts (all the same size) into the LH head of the Griff engine so I can have a non-leaky exhaust. They either don't answer emails, pass me round in endless hell-phone loops or want me to buy millions of the damn things or they won't even give me the time of day...

Is there anyone on here who's a bit more sympathetic?

Thanks!!

PS I don't really want to use helicoils as I'm worried about how many times they'll tolerate me taking the exhaust off, and the exhaust gets a lot of shock loading from dodgy Isle of Wight roads...

Thanks both. I'll get my email when I get home...

I can't decide between keeping it to the original UNC or changing it to metric (I think std thread M8 is about right) Will look up the size tonight when I get home.
