What is with the threads on this motor? Bell housing bolts all messed up. The PCV threads were probably messed up too which led to the botched AOS. Could it have been exposed to something? I've had 3 WRXs and never seen anything like it. Haven't done anything with the bell housing or PCV on my VB yet though. I guess we'll see.
What about the broken bellhousing bolts? You gonna send it without them or you gonna drill them and repair the threads. I run into this all the time and made a drill guide out of an old bellhousing I cut off a 5spd trans.
@ when they gaul like this nothing really helps. It’s a chemical bond between the two dissimilar metals (grade 8 steel bolt and aluminum block) so no amount of heat seems to matter

@@averagejoe6084 it ultimately depends what the customer wants to do and which ones break, some don’t want to pay for the extra time and some do.

Those looked pretty bad, would welding a nut on the stud be better than the induction heater?
