I Live in Los Angeles

One of my Exhaust manifold Studs is Broken and i need to replace 2 others that seem stripped ( i have an annoying Leak, that is pretty loud)

Anybody know a mechanic who is experienced enough to do this? and how much would this run me?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks!

P.S. I know that i can buy a Broken Stud Remover and drill it out, but i am not experienced enough nor do i have the tools for this..

15 bucks and a pack of cigs. bring your ass to long beach with the new studs.

Likethunda · 09-07-2011, 06:20 PM

you serious... ?

If he was no serious, he would not have replied. PM him your info if anything.

R@ddy · 09-08-2011, 12:02 AM

are you talking about the studs on the head that hold the manifold OR on the actual manifold the ones that hold the turbo?

Likethunda · 09-09-2011, 11:34 PM

I hit both of them up.. I guess the Issue is one of them is broken inside the Head which needs to be drilled out.. the other two can prob be removed with some pliers or something
