    What's up so I recently put in my SD headers and I was getting a nasty leak from where the header met the head seems one of my manifold studs was snapped flush with the head I took my car to the mechanic he's going to charge me 150-200$ depending on the labor involved with taking off my header and removing the stud does this price seem fair to you guys ? Anyone ever have to get their stud tapped out and replaced ?

    One broken stud is not causing the leak. I have two and no leaks so...

    Price is what he figures it'll take in time.

    I've gotten a couple out and it's a pain...takes time.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
