Re: Need Advice on Removing Broken off Stud and Head
First choice would be swiveling the head, second would be the head puller. I also made one up years ago and it works great.

Re: Need Advice on Removing Broken off Stud and Head
I am with the hole saw gang. I have fought corroded steel to aluminum a few times and the pieces never came loose. A fill plug on a Muncie was so bad I had to add a new plug.
A piece of 1/2 in tubing drilled out to 7/16 Id would be a wall thickness of 1/32 in. Teeth could be shaped with a Drimmel tool. |

Re: Need Advice on Removing Broken off Stud and Head
Hey Guys, This is a problem I had with my 38 V12 in my zephyr. I didn't break off the stud but the heads were welded to few of the studs. What we did was to heat the studs, in your case the bolt to almost red hot then let it cool completely while spraying WD40 at the stuck studs. While heating the stud we placed a washer on the stud as not to melt the aluminium heads. When reassembling a aluminium heads I use a product called TEFGEL. It's designed for use where aluminium comes in contact with steel or bronze. I works great, no more corrosion around the studs or bolts. Tim

Re: Need Advice on Removing Broken off Stud and Head
On model T's we would stuff a piece of rope in thru the spark plug hole, and turn the motor over to push the head loose. Not sure if you can do that with a v8 head, never tried

Re: Need Advice on Removing Broken off Stud and Head
Yes V8, that's my buddy'4 blown 40 coupe. He had the engine built by Mark Kirby many years ago when Mark had his full tilt shop in Dundee, MI just down the road from his house. I drove all the way to MI visit him back then and he gave me the full tour. He had converted an old car dealership into his MCF business. It was a great set up. Mark was a good man dedicated to flatheads.

Re: Need Advice on Removing Broken off Stud and Head
A broken bolt or stud is almost always the time to consult a machine shop. We see lots
of these, such as exhaust manifolds and other places that have many heat/cool cycles and/or amateur attempts to remove which complicate the job, such as drilling. |
