I'm sorry, but I will listen to the gurus here and they ALL say watch torque specs. I've never broke one off in my motor and i've never used more than 8 ,only that cause i'm a little picky. JMHO I will say this, I have stripped em out and the helicoils, etc aren't what they are cracked up to be in this application. Again JMHO
