Is there a way of taking the looseness out of threads for the intake bolts on aluminum heads?(on the motor in the car) Also where to purchase a thread chaser?

they thread a steel insert into the head and you run your bolts in and out of the insert. just install new inserts. they are similar to a helicoil

You can try using a class 3 tap and bolt , they have very tight spec's and are used on aircraft or anything of good quality. Just the Tap with a regular bolt tighten things up. I usually run a class 3 taps when preparring a block to assemble. We use them on our nitro motor's to keeps things held tightly together.

info on taps:
There are three established Classes of Thread, designated in the Unified series by adding “A” for screws and “B” for nuts (or other internal threads) to show definite limits and tolerances.

Class lB Thread is that in which a 1 A screw can be run in readily for quick and easy assembly. The hole is classified as 1 B. The fit is 1 B Thread, and rarely used in modern metalworking.

Class 2B Thread consists of a 2A screw in a 2B hole. This 2B Thread has wide application, accommodates plating, finishes, and coating to a limited extent and, therefore, has fair tolerance allowances.

Class 3B Thread means a 3A Screw in a 3B Nut or threaded hole for applications where tolerance limits are close.
