I was installing an exhaust stud into a heli-coiled cylinder and caused the aluminum to crack around the heli-coil. I was hoping there was a way to repair the aluminum and redrill and tap a new hole?
I came across the following web site and wondered if anyone has used this company's product with success? New Technology Product I appreciate any feedback. Also, if anyone has a heating system, or parts of one. they wish to sell. please let me know. (pre 1975, preferably 1974 1.8L) THANKS |

Are you sure that's "new"? It looks alot like the standard aluminum brazing rods you can pick up at any state fair or gun show. I have some, they work ok, but you have to get the base metal VERY hot. They make most of the same claims as the "new technology product". Heck, how can they really continuously call themselves "new technology products" as if their products will never become old technology? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
