32 ADFA, air cleaner post holes stripped.

A couple of the holes that the air cleaner posts screw into are stripped.

What is the best way to deal with this?
Tap it and go to a larger diameter post?

Thanks,

this is such a common problem that when Fiat still supplied carb kits they came with replacement studs that were larger on one end. If you just want to install larger studs, you'll need to find studs like that. 4mm on one end, 6mm on the other. Or, install helicoils and use the original studs
