[Healeys] 6 cylinder rocker arm shaft pedestal

[Bob Haskell]

Michael,

Have some that are stripped.  Wondered about installing a threaded 
insert to repair.  I bought a new pedestal/bolt from Moss and was a bit 
surprised to see that a non-standard thread was used and wondered if it 
matched the original, or not.  If not, then one would have to use a new 
bolt with a new pedestal.  The diameter of the threaded section of the 
new banjo bolt is a bit larger than 3/8".

Cheers,
