Realistically you can probably get away without using two of the bolts on a valvecover but thats the ghetto way out.

To fix it you have to tap it to redo the threads. Next time dont go so hard on the valve cover bolts, just get them tight.

wrong. in every section of the forum that has to do with my car. usually when i post something asking for help in one section, it takes days for me to get a one-sentence reply. i was in need of an immediate answer, cuz time isnt really an option for me. that explains why i did what i did. thanks everyone for all the help.

yea i did that on boute every bolt on my valve cover. just re tap and thread them. the two back ones are kinda hard to get too. might need to pull some stuff to get to the holes.
