[DeTomaso] Holley Carb Air Cleaner Stud Hole Thread Repair

[Forest Goodhart]

 Doug,
How deep are the stripped threads? Would a longer stud length get down to good threads?

   The threads in my Holley 4150 carb for the Air Cleaner Stud are
  stripped out.

  It doesn't look like there's enough metal there to install a Heli-Coil.

  Has anyone run into this before and found successful repair method?

  My only thought is J-B Weld.
