John, that seems like a really good idea! Thinking about it more, though, if I'm trying to drill the case holes bigger that would mean I'm also drilling the plate holes bigger, which I probably wouldn't want.

Rob, that's an interesting tool set. I've seen a lot of talk about timeserts in the same breath as helicoils, and people seem to lean more towards the timeserts.

Thanks! You've both given me some new ideas and roads to explore, once the Kombi emerges from the snowbank it's currently in.
