Lee,

Is the reluctor wheel removable from the crank?

So its part of the crank itself then. Just never saw one.

Pete,

Thanks. Just wondering if there was a way to modify for triggering LS coils.

For that stubborn bolt some machine shops, if equipped, use an EDM machine to remove the material. Kinda overkill but definetely the cleanest way.

This is true. I didn't mention it because it's not too common in job shops. Way back when, they were referred to a "tap disintigrators", probably because the main application was to remove broken taps which can't be removed by drilling. Most were found in manufacturing, used to save parts with broken taps or drill bits.

Even if this method is used, the threads will still need to be chased or replaced with heli-coil considering the bolt was cross threaded.

Here is the response from Calico Coatings, I will probably send them out soon:

I am not sure if they can be recoated. I would have to inspect them to be sure. The cost to coat a set of rod bearings is $39 and cost to coat a set of main bearings is $39, there would also be a stripping charge of $40 if they are previously coated. It would take 3-4 days to complete. Let me know how you would like to proceed.
