The heli-coil worked great and was pretty easy to install even for someone with little experience like myself. Thanks for the advice. Truck is almost back together but getting too busy at work to get it done.

for future lookup the heli-coil size for the rocker arm bolt is M8x1.25 and the drill size is 21/64.
