while working on FWC install, i've been prepping the for the conversion installing a temporary T on the sea strainer so i could an acid flush, and do a pressure flush also.
while removing the the thermostat i realized why it took so long for the engine to warm up... no t-stat. while removing the housing i noticed 2 different bolts(1 stud, 1 bolt) and when i tried tightening down the bolt and stud, they both would not stop..
so, i bought the stud repair kit and was wondering if i need to drill deep enough into the block. i thought i read not to drill into the block but it seems like the stud and bolt already went in that deep...
i cant sail w/out the engine
