Subject: Re: The Straw has broken!! Now what to do with it. by Steve40th on 2008/7/28 5:12:43 I just took the header out as I was trying to see what was wrong as I couldnt even start a bolt in the header. Well the time cert (sert?) had backed its way out of the head, bring the oversized threads out. Now I have to figure out if the time cert hole that was drilled is even usable again. If the heads are going to come off, AFR's are going on. I spent money on these heads to be less of a head ache, and they have been nothing but, from broken springs as CNC put wrongs ones in for cam I had (Comp Cams 941, just look them up) and then I put time certs in TO PREVENT shit like this, being pro Active and heli coils in the manifold side of the head. I had a very reputable machine shop do it, now I am screwed as I cant drill in there. I will talk to my machinist tommorow, see what we can do. I really dont want to let it sit, as the engine needs to be fired up. |
