Helicoil for Spark Plug 700

I just had up a post about an ejected spark plug (90 740turbo with 282K miles)

I checked again and the threads are gone, except for about two turns at the very bottom.

Does anyone have special advice about using a heli/t-coil insert? I've never done it before, and doing it into an aluminum head as my first time is a little daunting.

Also, how do I know what size tap to get? Do I need to take in a matching spark plug?



Thanks,
Will
