    It’s a miracle! We heated the manifold and would you believe it? The broken bolts came out :) IMG_1752.jpeg

    just FYI, the dauntless isn't quite alpine green to begin with.

    I think I heard a rumor that some people put studs in the manifold to prevent this from happening again.

    I haven’t rebuilt the carb and reinstalled yet. Maybe I’ll do that. Did you change material? (Stainless, copper, etc.)
