Tim:
Depends on whether it's the bolt itself (hopefully) or the bolthole which is
stripped. If the bolt, just take it out and buy a new one. If the hole has
become a bit oversized because of the stripping, a little helicoil wouldn't
hurt on the new one, but with head bolts you want to be careful. If the
bolthole is really done in, then re-tap it using a tap and die set, then buy
the appropriately-sized bolt and you're in business. If you've never used a
tap-and-die set, practise on something non-essential (like a Chevrolet)
before attempting to do the deed to your B.
