So i picked up a complete 6-bolt motor yesterday for $200
The balance shaft belt broke on it and he never felt like fixing it so i thought no big deal (have eliminator kit)
upon looking more at the motor i notice a few bolts broke off prior to me tearing things down
and the intake manifold bolts seem like they were threaded in wrong or something
does anyone know the size tap i need for these thread holes:
intake manifold bolt
fuel rail bolt
harmonic balancer bolt
exhaust manifold stud
if someone could also give me a suggestion on how to easily fix the problem easily that would be great also
 
yeah it is
My thought was almost to just put the bolts that i can in and see if it works out but i don't want to get it together and have a problem
if it comes down to it ill just size the bolts and everything myself and tap them
but i wonder if theres an easier way to extract the bolts with out drilling them out?
 
No you gotta drill them out or use a ez out, be carefull though, it wont be easy and itll take some time

but be patient had to tap my turbo wasnt fun bu i saved my evo.
