Had a disaster with an inlet manifold support bracket in a Honda K20 (thats being supercharged hence the criticality of the support) and I am left with a snapped bolt that's now ground flush after previous unsuccessful attempts at welding nuts onto it.

Had a proper industrial mechanic mate look at it and it needs to go to a machine shop with compressors and hi speed drill bits.

The stud also has a snapped cobalt drill bit in it after a failed drilling attempt frown meaning we can't drill it out now.

Anyone know anyone or a friendly shop who could help out?

Cheers

David Falconer out at Blackburn might be able to help. I've used his services. Brilliant (albeit for valve stem seals to be done). Whether he can help, not sure but maybe worth a call as he might be able to point you in the right direction.
