Questions?? stripped inner head

hey guys,
a few months ago i bought a tamiya nitrage 5.2 (which has a 5.2 cc, FR-32FX engine).
this is my first nitro car, so i am very new to nitro cars, however, i have had a lot of experience with electric RC cars.

anyway,
i few days ago i managed to strip the inner head of my nitrage by over tightening the glow plug.
i order a new inner head, but yesterday evening, i got a mail from the online shop to say that my order had been shipped, but that it would take a month for it to arrive!

since i am not really prepared to wait a month to drive my nitrage again, i need to find a way to fix the stripped threads inside my inner head, so i can screw the glow plug back in.
does anyone have any idea on how to fix this?

thanks
