I have an early 3.4 996 that has totally corroded exhaust manifold bolts. There is a jig that has been developed so you can drill them out whilst the engine is still in the car. Does anyone know of where I could hire or borrow one of these jigs from? I'm in Hampshire if that helps. Many thanks
Hi worth posting on 911UK forum I am sure one of the guys on their was renting his out
??I've just sold one I'll try and dig out the guys number
Thanks Pieman!
Hi max if you pm me I found his number
There are mobile guys who do this work, but you'll need access to a ramp. If so, try Toulmin motors in Windsor for advice - they brought in a chap to drill all mine when I went SS on my exhaust and manifold - it was bout £250 from recollection.
Do you happen to remember how many studs they drilled out for that £250? If it was most of them then that's a great price, if it's only a minority then I'll still need to seek out a jig. Happily Pieman has given me the number of someone who has one, but if I can get them professionally done for a good price then that would be my preference.
that guy i gave the number of own a motorsport company. the jigs are on sale at porsche shop for around 360.00 i bought it just in case mine snapped but with a jig iwould have done it myself. Where are you maxthelion
I'm in Fleet in Hampshire.
