So my dad is swapping his HM341 pipes to a set of 4-1 MACs and it has been nothing but hell for him...well, 2 of the bolts have been. One of the bolts is seized in the head and nearly behind the frame. It looks like we may have to slide the engine over to even attempt getting that one out. The other one is directly accessible, but it will not budge. He has snapped 3 extractors already and has supposedly tried heating it up at least one of the times beforehand. Does anybody have an idea of where to go from here? I was suggesting to him to drill it out and helicoil it, but what sort of drill bit will he need that can make it through considering all the extrators that have failed? And you would have to get that hole damn straight, which may be easier said than done at that angle.
Ideas? Thanks!
