Hi all, right now I'm looking at possible buying a 2001 RCSB 1/2 ton that's had an 05 LLY/Allison swapped in that has an injector hold down hole that is stripped out. Wondering if anyone has any experience with a similar repair, and what did you use, helicoil or timesert? Also, for those that have owned or own a Duramax, how is maintenance and repairs on a Duramax? I have an idea on prices on general things like injectors, but are there any other common repairs?

Thanks,
Zak
