DZ headbolts

I stripped a plug threads on a YS 140 L. I tried 2 heli-coils  before I decided they would not stay in. They just blow out. I replaced the head. Problem solved.

I need a Head for a YS 1.40 fz or L for a friend  
if someone has one they would let go cheap  
also does any one know if they make repair helicoil kits for these motors for striped glow plugs?

Someone posted a problem with loose head bolts on their DZ a few days ago.  Mine did the same .  It started 6 or so flights ago, and terminated this evening with a blown head gasket.  I should have paid attention and checked mine before. Thought I'd post this for anyone who thinks, oh well theres probably only one engine like that and mine is just fine, maybe not.
