You have at least one broken exhaust stud now, the one on the end of the longer exhaust manifold piece.? I have never heard of any 603 head that did not have a broken stud there.? What's odd is they break but they don't fall out! ? Put a wrench on it and see. ? Jim in Phoenix ??And I suppose that we'll have to strip the head to send it to the shop - I was hoping to avoid having to borrow the pre-chamber puller, risk breaking exhaust studs, etc., but I guess it is the prudent thing to do - sigh.
