in the process of removing flywheel pins one snapped in half just a little more then flush with the flywheel. i've tried drilling into the pin but its still not budging. i don't like the idea of leaving a half broken half drilled pin in my flywheel, my only solution at this point would be to completly drill it out with a bit the same size or a little bigger than the flywheel alignment pin hole itself. does anyone see a downside to this? any other ideas for removal?
