Does anybody know what the thread size is for the thermostat bolts? I think 1 of the holes is stripped and I want to have a helicoil on hand before I do a nother coolant flush

All I remember is that it is a metric thread

M8 x 1.25 is the most common bolt thread size on the 6.0. I'd be really surprised if that wasn't it

Are the threads on top of these studs the same as the bottom?
