Reason: Edit typo in thread title
Man I am so sorry to see all that damage!! Looks like the bolts are pulling the Aluminum threads out of the block?
I can only suggest using Heli-coils in the block to give you steel threads. I have never seen threads pulled out so perfectly?

Seems thet will be my only chance.
but the threads are so deep in the engine block...
and so littel room to work in...
Is it possible?
Well Heli-Coil is only one of several thread repair systems. I do think Keenserts are better but it's up to you.
Take a look. I would send them an E-mail with your pictures and a description of your problem.

Has the engine been subject to an overheating episode ?
