There is about 1/8"-1/4" of threads above the head?
Can I remove this myself with standard tools (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

911 exhaust studs break. Too late now but, the best way to get them off is with a MAP torch. Heat each nut red hot and then remove. Now... weld on a nut if you have a welder. As mentioned previously, the welding may help break the bond. If not. Heat it red hot and attempt again. Re-studding is a great idea if you're taking all the heads in but it can be costly. Your $300 price is about average. You'll probably pay $8-10 per stud for the exhaust stud fix (IIRC). What Perry said... if it's portable enough, get it to a machine shop. This will conquer you objective of getting it back together for a trial run. |
