k9sar Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) yea, broke mine off and had to drill it, tap it and used a bolt instead of a stud/washer/nut it's the little bump to the right of the tensioner Edited April 23, 2016 by k9sar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vagabond Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 yeah I was going to pull one out of a spare block and I was afraid I was going to snap it off. guess I'll pull the heads an check the pistons if theyre ok I'll go ahead and drill it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
