Exhaust studs

I've a few very slack threads for the exhaust studs and was wondering if anyone has rebored and tapped some of the threads in the head to accept 9mm bolts, as there seams to be enough meat left to do that.

I can get m9 x m8 stepped studs, which could be screwed into the head and use the M8 for the exhaust flanges.

Just a thought.

Never seen m9 used for anything.

Proper oddball size

Not the exact ones that I was looking at, but just for reference

Well I don't see why not as when you helicoil them you drill it out tap it and wind the helicoil in .... Just don't drill all the way though into the cam chest, found it done after chasing an oil leak on a 600...
