How 2 Wrench | Stripped head bolt repair YOU DON’T NEED TO PULL THE ENGINE! 3 shops lied to us! #LT1 #strippedhead @How2Wrench | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 18 hours ago.
First off…I’ve never claimed to be a car expert, so when a family friend called looking for help after no luck locally for 6 weeks, I said I’d come see how back it was.
Three shops in Phoenix told our friend they had to pull the engine to fix a stripped head bolt. My brain just couldn’t wrap my head around the auto industry not having a solution for one of the most mass produced engines in America… a Chevrolet V-8 from a Camaro. A 6.2L GEN V LT1 to be exact.
COME ON!!! There’s no way you have to pull the motor, someone has to have figured it out. 2 mins on Goggle and I found this gem of a product. The NS300L kit.
We ordered one in and show the process. What a well built and outstanding product. We see they even have a Polaris kit!
