Is this simple enough to do?

THinking about doing this due to a bolt failure during refit (fucking defecting bolt)

which has sheered off in the block, can probably extract it, but is it worth doing the M10 convertion while its out? or never an issue on 2wd?

Harvey did mine for me - so no idea how easy or difficult, as it was just a matter of saying "do it" .

Ryan,

Its a piece of cake pal, just measure the thread depth and dont get over exuberant...

Drill size is 8.5 for m10x 1.5

Ian

p.s. did those bits ever turn up?

Ryan

cheers as ever ian your a legend.

you mean the weld on fittings?

errrmmm...............

ian sibbert

Nice one pal.....sump looks lovely.....

Ryan

will try and get a drill bit sorted today, would like to get it drilled and tapped tonight, as im running out of time, so much to sort and so little time to do it.

was hoping to get the engine in this weekend, but now due to this it doesnt look like thats going to happen.

will put the sump on tomorrow if the half moons from fords turn up today.
