Anyone have experience with these?

Blind Full Torque threaded inserts. I like the blind aspect of them seeing as I’m close to water jackets. Wish I had kept my old block to drill through the holes and see how much metal is under the holes.

I think I'm going to go with Lock and Stich blind Full Torque inserts.
Kit comes with everything needed - especially the right angle drill fixture.
Overall length of the blind insert is 1.330".
OD of the inserts is 0.595"
Existing threaded blind holes in the block (7/16-14) are coming in at around 1.630".
I'm not concerned with the depth of the insert - plenty of room. What are everyone's thoughts on the OD - 0.595"?

Sorry to hear about the head bolt woes. This whole process is probably in my future if my motor ever decides to give it up. Reading about the inserts, it appears some can transfer the torque load laterally which I think might be bad in a rover block. Stress around the head bolts stock is suspect in cylinder wall cracks according to the JE blog post below.

@Tony Luna Cracked blocks and stripped threads, it is old info back 6 or 7 years. I researched when I did my heads about 4 years ago. To be fair the recommended torques in that info were way stupid high too, sorry but I can not locate the info I found. If they are actually made for the Rover V8 you should be fine, as I recall a the issue was people sourcing Buick parts, which are not the same
