Re: N* Head Gasket repair part I/ Remove engine

B b o b said he would drill out the holes without the guideplate. This was after doing a couple. I think that if you are careful you could do that. I would't advise it the first time or if you aren't the careful type but the old hole does guide the bit. You have a bit of play around the bolts anyway. If you don't mess with the guide plate and have a couple of drills it would be a lot faster. We took a whole evening to do it so more like 3-4 hours.
