You won't be able to get one as they are line bored to match the head. The one you lend will not necessarily be the same as the one you get back

May not fit

Studs aren't available from anywhere really. You gotta use a M6 cap stud or something similar and tap the hole out to suit

You can helicoil too if you like

[FineLine]

Surely a stud wouldnt be too hatd to locate. What am i missing here

[The Dan]

So did the stud just break or is there a piece stuck in the head?

[FineLine]

just super glue it Adam, Dan does,

[The Dan]

Righto, I'm off to bed then. Cyas

Bit of stud broke inside thats what i thought about the stud theory should be able to just threadtech the old one out and replace the stud like any studs head manifolds etc

[Devils_Advocate21]

You can buy replacements for the rb26 the tomei ones, but i just need one not 28 of the fookers, and it happened to the intake or bearing cap I6 as numbered on them the one with the brass plate attached to it, and yes dan is correct about the bearings as there machined for that specific engine, looks as if it was going to break either way who ever did it as it broke almost instantly first slightest pressure on the damn thing....
