Hi


looking for a new head for a HY 30.5 engine,previous owner stripped out one of the header bolts,engine is barely broken in yet and it's a strong runner


I'll eventually get an OBR for the MT but for now I might as well use this engine


I tried locating one but all I'm finding is CY heads


can someone point me in the right direction where I can order one of these heads


thanks in advance

You could permanently install a stud in the stripped hole then hold the header on with a nut. JB Weld works good. The stud will never come out. That way you could get the remaining life out of that engine.

there's an idea,never thought of it,thanks

but I wonder if the stud will hold properly and/or not back in or out,the stud almost slides in without screwing it in :confused:

It works good. I've had to do it. The stud will never come out. JB Weld will keep it in.
