one stripped head bolt - get girdle head or helicoil?

[bwizzie]

If it makes any difference, its a non girdle Riva head 175psi. I've had one other experience using helicoils... Should I be concerned about drilling into the bolt hole given the thin cylinder wall?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Heli coils are fine. Timecerts would probably be to thick.

I heli-coiled all of my holes, no problems here.

Yes, she held the bit while I screwed it.
