Exhaust Studs

[Dead Eye]

The studs I've ordered are proper replacements, but they won't be here till next week I expect. I was attempting to get the old studs out but they are having none of it

I may be able to do it with the engine still in place (might be fiddly) as the only thing that appears to be significantly in the way is the radiator. If it comes down to it, I'll just have to remove the engine which will be a whole lot of fun I imagine - can't be worse than a cage gearbox swap surely...

I haven't actually looked at any stud extractors (didn't cross my mind) so I guess that's my next move.
