Help I frucked up hpfp

[F15x550icaliboy]

Long story short, I replaced my hpfp on my X5 n63tu and reused the same bolts and now one of them is sorta stripped, i over torqued it and it spun. Can I just buy a longer m6 bolt or am I screwed and have to get the engine retapped?

look into using a helicoil to replace ur stripped threads.

Like Topec said, you will need to helicoil it if most of the threads are stripped. When you fix it and are ready to try to bolt it down again, make sure you rotate the engine until the metal plunger that rides the cam goes down all the way to its lowest point, then bolt down the hpfp, turning just a half turn on each bolt at a time and alternating between them until you reach the torque spec.
