If you drill out the offending bolt with a slightly undersized drill and use a diamond point cold chisel to cut the remains of the bolt out then you will have a clean enough thread to use over. Easier than changing a captive nut.

Hows the FGT going???

Thanks Ian

I'll try that although a lot of the caged nuts are fairly fragile and tend to punch the cage through.

I've been concentrating on the F15 so no progress on the GT yet. At least it runs and has great brakes.
