    Got to spend some time on this motor.
    The first repair I needed attempt was to make
    the mounts for the coil cover. The two on the
    cylinders took some time but went pretty well.
    .
    Getting the broken bolt out of the mount to the
    block, not so much. I spent as much time on
    it as I did making the ones for the cylinders
    and still failed.
    First I tried a left-handed drill bit. Of coarse
    the bit always moves off center for me.
    Then an easy out. Last resort – drill & tap.
    What’s left seem to be well attached.
    As my hole was off center its probably best
    that what’s left didn’t come out. I’m leaving it.
    No wings for Clarence this time Bob.

    A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
