Re: what size drill bit and tap for 3/8 heli-coil
Drilling into a broken bolt, using ez outs and helicoils is a rite of passage for a youngster. Usually teaches you to be more careful.
I had to do the same to one of my exhaust bolts a year or so ago. I hate that I got rid of all my stuff like that thinking I was done a few years ago.
Amazon has helicoil kits a few bucks cheaper than anywhere local here.
When you buy the kit, it will either come with a bit or tell you which one you need.
