I'm a Mechanic at a local shop and found a repair kit for this problem. Yes it was expensive ($475.00 ) but its cheaper than an engine.These inserts are a solid repair, but you might have to put all of them in because of the nature of the problem. The torque on the bolts are 58lbs and tighten add'l 90 deg which is alot of pressure to hold, these are what they call torque to yield bolts. I got a new set of bolts for this car so the torque will be the same across the board. Good luck with your repair and take your time doing it being sure not to get shavings in the engine when drilling for the inserts
