head studs this sux!!

[parts eeter]

I took my engine apart and was just gonna freshen it up.Well it looked like it needed a little overbore.So I ordered a plus .020 11:1 piston and a crf timing chain blah blah blah and when I took the head studs out they came out smooth and tight but when I looked in the holes it looked as if the threads were gone in there!!! Now I have to send my cylinder out and have the hd studs installed.I dont want to send it out and wait for it.Is it possible I do the big stud install on a drill press??? I mean as long as they are staright and I dont drill in too far I will be all set.I have done jet skis before and they have like 16 studs in them.I have been throwin $$$ at my quad all winter and I wnat to ride.Gimme some you dirty little 4 wheeler.Gimme some now:macho
