Need help, Put a hole in cam holder where it holds the bolt to the rocker cover

Post by ebroon » Fri Feb 01, 2019 1:42 am

Hey guys, i was drilling the cam holder to install a helicoil but i drilled it on a angle and off center and ended up making a hole in the holder.

I was wondering if i can tape the hole and fill it with jb weld and tap it (this time ill get someone that knows what theyre doing) or do i need a new holder set

Thank you
