Cooling system

Hi Peter. Your solution may depend on the condition of the block casting, where your bolt has failed. If the casting around the hole is sound then taking it out to a 3/8 thread is quite successful (and has, in my observation, been done many times). A stainless steel bolt is often used. Exercise care to prevent accidental drilling or tapping into the bore ( I have put a plate behind the hole in past as a precaution). If you block casting is cracked at the hole, then a drilled plate can be purchased from Cherished suppliers to expedite this issue. There is generally not a lot of casting for the metalock process (though others may have another experience). I’m not an expert (just an owner for over 40 years).
