[JITB]

shouldnt be too much considering u can take the head off and take it to the machine shop.. and they can knock it out in a second!

[jadakid88]

no they cant thats my problem now. no one in the metro area can do it because it is to far down

I would throw the block away and buy a new one before I would let scotts do anything to it. I wouldn't let them air up a tire, much less any sort of machine work, or anything else for that matter. They should have some sort of "special education" work program. Their work quality would drastically increase.

Go to sears or to O'riely's and buy a bolt extractor kit. It will probably take about 10 minutes to remove it.

huh the bolt isnt stuck it wont thread.like its hard when you try to put them in

[southside]

Really hard to turn

[JITB]

well u might be able to re thread it like blackshine said, with a kit form the parts store... ive done it before on a spark plug thread. But if its really deep than its gonna be hard to find something that long..

[blackshine007]

Really hard to turn

Oh, my bad. Blow out the holes with compressed air. If at all possible, get a tap and die kit and go over each hole. Make sure you blow any trash out of it or it will be very difficult to turn.

[southside]

^^^Yea I think my friends already tried dat,didnt work.

Ok what would the die kit do

[blackshine007]

It would help by cleaning up slag that was caused by trash that was in the bolt hole while you were trying to install that bolt. And it's good assurance that you will have a whole that won't tear up your bolts.

[southside]

^^^Ok thanks

its about time to let your scott hating go. its getting old.

[southside]

do you know what scott did to him

[Init2winit]

I don't care how old it gets. They do ****ty work, period. If you don't like what I have to say, and if you're too ****ing stupid to see that their workmanship is that of an elementary school kid, then **** off. Its like I said before, if you're too god damn stupid to know good work from bad work, then you don't know what bad work is.

[Init2winit]

do you know what scott did to him

I have had to clean up several of Scott's Machine Shop's messes. I'm not getting in depth with what all I have encountered, because there is simply too much. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

[Grimm Reeper]

oh ok thats cool I stay near publix on 138.It was a min back when I seen ya.

When I get her back on the road I'll be sure to hit you up

[southside]
