Found the bottom taps I needed in Durham, and put the rest of the Keenserts 
in this morning.  Used four Keenserts and 3 heliocoils and was able to stay 
with the original diameter 3/8" bolts which all can now be easily torqued to 
34 foot pounds.  

So, I'm back to where I started last Saturday morning.  One of the four bolts 
holding the fan belt to the timing chain cover is also stripped, so I'll 
"keensert" that one tomorrow, and then try to make headway getting new clutch 
and old transmission re-connected to the engine this weekend prior to the 
Great Engine Back Into The Car show which hopefully will happen soon.
