I got my block and i'm looking to get some new oil pan bolts. Some missing, some broken. Where can i get a new set for a good price. My block also cam with some broken ones and i have no idea how i'm going to remove them from the block. Any help would be great!!!

 

u need an extractor kit, you can buy one at sears.

u need to drill a little hole then use the right extractor, tap it in there and turn it counterclockwise with a wrench.

as for finding the bolts, go to your local junkyard

Anybody else?

well i can jus think of honda to get them new, but no you do not drill in the block, you drill a little hole in the bolt that is stuck in the block, then you take the extractor to take out the broken stud or bolt. this way you can put a new bolt in the same whole.

 

Any 10mm bolt will work fine. They do not have to be Honda bolts. As for removing the bolts. First try to use a thin piece of metal rod (I.E. hanger) and try to put a dab of crazy glue on the end and glue it to the broken bolt. At times when a bolt brakes the piece that is left in the hole is real loose. If that does not work use the EZ-Out that they spoke about. Do not worry about drilling a hole in the screw. You do not have to drill very deep at all just a small dimple works well at times.
