Where to buy Time-Serts
I need to repair a couple of stripped "minor" studs on my 73S engine - both M8's I think. One is an oil cooler stud and the other is where the timing chain housing mounts to the case. Oh - I think I have a couple of M6 studs too, one where the breather cover mounts on top and one where the right side timing chain cover mounts to the housing. The oil cooler one is most critical, because it's dripping onto my heat exchanger.
Anyway, where can I buy Time-sert kits? I've only found the head stud kit and the $500 master kit on the Pelican site. I really just want an M8 kit and maybe an M6 kit. Oh - and naturally, I wnat somewhere with great customer service, immediate turnaround and shipping, and reasonable prices. :-) Thanks, Brian

Make sure you shop this once you find resellers on Timesert's page. I almost bought a 10x1 timesert kit from Wurth for $160, then called a reseller in TX and got it for $52 (delivered). Hmmmmm......

I called around and found that Threadkits.com, in SoCal, had what I needed in stock for a reasonable price, and would ship the same day. The price was $42 for the 8mm kit and 0.84 each for additional (longer) inserts. So far, so good.
