This is why rubber mounts are not recommended, unless you use a jump wire from one of the rad mount bolts to chassis.

I thought that the reason for insulating the radiator from the chassis with rubber mounts was to prevent electrolysis in the coolant system?
As far as the threads not working: Perhaps its what's called "interference" thread? I used a tap and die set from Snap on, and when I tried to "die" a stripped stud on a coilover, it did not want to work with me, however I knew for a fact that it was the right thread size....
Sometimes threads are just funky like that. also, if you do "Thread chase" it, make sure to have the radiator upside down so that all the metal shavings dont end up in there!
