heli coil

does anybody have a heli coil kit that can help me out?

I found the culprit of my oil leak...whoever had my engine before hand stripped one of the cam plug seal cap bolts and tried to just silicone it in...I discovered this lastnight when I went to replace the cam plug...so I need a 6mmx1.00 helicoil to repair it

anybody?

right... canadian tire is going to loan you a heli-coil. Good one.

Matt.. i wish i had heli-coils that small, I would give you one for all the times you helped me out, but I don't, most of mine are for spark plug sizes.
