    I'm a Timesert guy when it comes to repairing spark plug threads. I've not done a Triton, but I've used them many times on bikes over the last 20 years, and many times they can be done without even removing the head.

    Exactly, we did the helicoil thing until it started costing us even more than it was worth. Then we switched over to the timeserts.
    But the only real fix is replacing the head.
