twisted exhaust manifold studs

[Boggin]

well i started drilling with a small bit and drilled right through perfect after i sharpened the bit on the bench grinder and then i went to put in the bigger drill bit and the drill burned up on me. so the only other one i had was battery powered and not worth a damn so i said f it and grinded it off down to bare metal and heated it up and tried welding on a bolt. it worked good but i was only using the small mig so i got it tacked on anyways and tomorrow im gonna burn it on with the big arc welder

but this one will require re drill and tap (got it drilled, just need to tap it now)
