Parts came in for the exhaust on my old F-600, have one broken exh. manifold bolt, funny how the rest came out easy, and I think I've got enough to let a nut hang on what is sticking out, I think I will weld the nut to the broken bolt, hoping the heat and grip I'll get will help carefully work that bolt out. Question is, if I clamp off on an adjacent bolt, will that be close enough to avoid stray voltage from arcing, say like connecting rods and bearings below which I know can happen if you are not careful. I'm thinking this should not be a problem if grounded close to the work, this old Y-block 292 runs good, lot of oil pressure etc. don't want to screw it up if you know what I mean, I'll try other methods if too risky. Thanks again !
