Broken Manifold Stud Replacement 200 84

posted by  someone claiming to be Randolph on  Sat Nov 25 02:01 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Brickheads,

I have to replace 4 broken manifold studs in the 84 Turbo project car. I plan to follow the procedure laid out in the FAQ. I'll be using a rt. angle drill (millwaukee)and cobalt bits.

I want to re-tap the holes for a 10mm. stainless allen cap screws.

Is there anything I should be aware of outside of the advice given in the FAQ? I am worried that there might not be enough clearance to drill the studs in the front and back of the head.

Any tips on keeping the holes perpendicular to the head? I don't want to remove the engine if I don't have to.

As always, thanks
