I finally welded the hangers on the exhaust yesterday, and when I was reinstalling it i over tightened one of the nuts on the head (stupid cheep torque wrench). The bolt pulled out of the head and after the bolt was out I could unscrew what I can best describe as filings out of the threads on the bolt. The thing is after cleaning the threads on the bolt I could screw it back into the head and it seemed to fit pretty tight. The question is can I still use this bolt with some epoxy or jb weld, or should I rethread the head and use a bigger bolt. I do not know how hot the head and the exhaust header gets but if I can get away with using JB weld that would be great. Tell me what you think All ideas are appreciated,thanks.
