Well ya, the head's gotta come off either way, so I guess cheaper is better. I just know it would cost a dam sight more than $20-$30 to have a helicoil done here in Wisconsin. $100 maybe. They are all about labor dollars. I had a helicoil done on one of my head bolts (or should I say, a "sleeve") It came loose with all the vibration, or maybe wasn't properly installed in the 1st place--point being, it started leaking oil around the head. ( I just had the head gasket done) He ended up drilling it all the way through and putting a nut on the bottom, sealed with locktight.
