using a helicoil kit is the same on any bolt it doesnt have to be specific to a head bolt. but me and my buddy used one on one of his spark plugs that kept popping out and its worked for about 6 months now

the reason i was asking is because the threads dont start until about 4 inches in the block so it looks a little difficult
