head stud removal
I had a good day today , got 47 of the head studs out of a C69A block, only one snapped off flush.
What I did was to cut them all off about 1/2 inch above the block with a 4in cutoff wheel on the angle grinder, then get a pile of old head nuts, drill them out to 7/16 and tig weld them onto the studs, after they cool, used a 1/2 drive air impact gun on the low setting, all but the one came out, this is, as any one who knows ,usually a real pain of a job, so tomorrow only one to drill and tap out.
