The Time-Serts arrived and they worked just fine.
A little different in style/construct but they threaded in as hoped.
The Senmmonn inserts have a wider lip than the Time-serts and, having already prepared the intake for the Senmmonns, the Time-serts seated a little deeper but, that’s fine.

Time-Sert
Heli / Perma-Coil. This one was previously installed years ago and remains.
Using the OEM upper as a guide for drilling, the holes are plumb and the intake will be ready for use after the bolt hole is fixed. The studs look a little off given the affects of using close focus.
Aaaand, true to form. After all this time, money and hoopla is finally done… look what I found while re-organizing my tool chest.
Yup…the missing M8 x 1.5 Heli Coil kit was ‘hiding’ on a cluttered shelf, under a tossed rag, waiting for use when I got done with the original project of replacing the injector return hoses. I knew I’d seen them somewhere…old-Heimers and one big, serious face palm here.
But before I get dog piled upon by you my friends, I seem to recall finding a return hose kit under some stashed parts in the back of someone’s Burb a couple of years ago….
”[Things] happen,” eh?

Went to Kingman to prep the streamliner and help with a couple of other things around the place. Took my damaged lower intake in the hopes there would be time to repair the ear. Nope. But, friend of his knew a guy etc. and I was able to pick up a pretty clean lower for a fair price. Sorry, there are no additional parts unless one wants the upper "F" intake. No damage to the mating surfaces or ears and the upper to lower bolt threads were seemingly free of issue. Ran an M-8 tap through them and there was no resistance.
Brought to my favorite Powder Coater and it came out real nice. They cleaned up the upper intake as well so now I have, what, three of them!
Anyway, today was out with the old...
...and in with the new.
With my back and hips giving me the issues they have, I figured it would be a two day job but, things went pretty smooth and no backward steps for a change.
