broke a bolt off in the block
Well........what a f'Ing day............me and my buddy tried to put the 350 up on the stand. Got the wrong size bolts first trusting Dad's measurements. Got the right size and then snapped the bolt off in the block right above the oil filter adapter. Left about a 1/4 " outside of the block........safe to say I am more than pissed off since I have waited over a year and a half to get to this point. Any ideas?????? Weld a nut to the thread or drill it out and re-tap the thread????? I am tempted just to throw the whole motor in the back of my Dad's rig and let him take it to the shop and play with it........ I hate my life right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
