Have fun and plan on twice the amount of time you thought it would and if u have trouble getting bolts out unhook bats and weld a nut with washer under it to broke bolt sometimes it works and easier then drilling out usually
mhale0312 Thanks this. -
We use reverse drill bits on the broken bolts to see if they will spin out, if not we drill and Heli-coil them.

we've done plenty of those, take your time and you'll get them out. most times drilling and installing heli coils is the answer. I have had some luck drilling a small pilot hole 1/8-3/16 then stepping up to 1/4" with a RH bit hoping it will catch and turn the broken piece in. Another tip, the manifold bolts from cummins have a slot cut into the tip of the bolts so when your bit pokes through it's common to break your drill bits so be careful. Good luck
Heavyd Thanks this.
