Hi there,
Kieran here, this is me first post and i am new to it. savage site!!!!
Just got my first project
.
I am in the middle of stripping down a ford cvh engine. I am not too sure of the litre but it came from an escort equipe.
I have taken off the rocker cover and the bolts holding the head to the block. they came off with a bit of strength but were no trouble.
Then i moved onto the exhaust manifold. there is a heat shield covering the actual manifold and i cannot get at the manifold until i remove this. The problem is that the bolts that are holding the heat shield on are as tight as a son of a gun, and over time the bolts have become soft and i feel that if i give it too much they could end up mushrooming.
Does anyone have any ideas on how i could take these off without destorying them?
Much appreaciated
Kieran M
