So I was tightening up my header blots and snapped on off:mad: on the driver side first port front bolt. While trying to drill and tap a new hole, I accidentally drilled off to the right. A couple drips of anti freeze can out. I did get the hole tapped, put a bunch of thread sealant in there and its holding for now. What should I do about new heads? just replace the one or upgrade them both? What are my options? Pricing? and where to look? any help is greatly appreciated!

It was a stud , correct ? On the back side of the studs are water passages , thats why their studded . Not knowing how bad it's drilled off center , you may try and take it to a machine shop and see if they can't drill it out oversized and install a oversized stud that steps down to the correct bolt size you have . Heres a pic of what I'm talking about .
