helicoil - brands

[haimsey]

Right, so I stripped a thread out of one of the lower inlet manifold holes today. Wasn't overly tightened, just let go.
I have looked at HeliCoil, hold a hefty price for the m8 kit. There are other brands on ebay, bit cheaper. Will the cheaper ones be suffice for this single hole?

I've used Vcoil and Sealey kits, and both are generally OK.

I've seen the v-coil sets in a few places. Will have a mooch at them

We use recoil at work, they're easy enough to use. And the likes of airbus, rolls Royce and bombardier are happy with them.
