I've just swapped over the EA82T in my L series with a replacement.
Trouble is, the new engine doesn't have the power steering pump mount.
To fit it I need to rip off the intake manifold, but two of the bolts go into the water jacket and after attempting to remove one, I am certain it is going to snap.
Should I ditch the p/s and chuck in a manual rack?
Or is there a fix for a snapped manifold bolt? Doesn't look pretty.
Cheers.
