Actually, heli-coils, and specifically time-serts, are stronger and less likely to give problems, ie “pull out” than just a threaded block, be it iron or aluminum.
in decades past, when preparing an engine for race duty, the first thing we did was to install heli-coils, and later on,then the time-sert product when it became known to us.
