Default Need to re-thread crank snout.. crap
Ok so I ended up stripping the threads in my crank snout while putting my pulley back on. Anyone have a M16x2.0 24mm helicoil kit? Or know of good machine shop within the san fernando valley?

you know what i did in my gto back in the day..... i actually drilled out and tap the crank for 3/4 stud, from there it was really easier to install and remove the crank pulley, plus no more stripped out crank
