i have an exhaust leak, a bad one at that. my two studs on the bottom are broke off. the previous owner of the engine tapped and retapped the one closest to the rear so ti can no longer be tapped. the other one has a stud broke in it. i have a racingbeat header welded to a borla exhaust with no cats and i really want to hear it so any help would rock. thanks

 

So the bolts are broken off in the block?

 

Yea, expain what bolts are broken off.

 

not bolts, the studs that come out of the block. and only the stud toward the front of the motor is broken, the other one just came out.(i think thats because he jb welded it in)

 

Go and buy yourself some helicoils. They work great and should be able to fix your prolbem with ease.

 

Damn man, doesn't sound good. Personally I wouldn't take a chance so I'd take it to a good shop and see what they can do. Guess they could tap the old holes and use some bolts.
