1974 911 Aluminum Brake Caliper

Has anyone out there had any luck using a Helicoil to repair the stripped out brake line banjo bolt treads on a 1974 911s aluminum brake caliper?

1994 or 1974?

I would be more inlined to use a timecert than a heilicoil since they're much stronger and the pressures in the brake system is pretty substantial

Thanks Tim for the quick response. I 'm not familiar with a timecert. Would you explain in furthur detail and do you know of anyone doing this repair successfully?

Thanks,
Tim
