[QUOTE="Goldtop, post: 199727, member: 5268"] Thanks for the replies. I need to put one thing straight but I do accept that there are many other solutions. The bolt is the one that holds the pulley on the cam with a washer under it and the woodruff key is inserted before into its slot beforehand. The bolt sheared at the head of its length. At the point I was at I had just finished the heads and this was final assembly before the new belts. The weld repair is a tack on the point where the woodruff key the pulley and cam all meet. To remove you simply grind off the weld. He did it in front of me to prove it was easy to remove. Its a quick fix I guess but not unsafe. Just different. The old sheared bolt can be removed by spark erroding. That's a job I've had done before on the forks to remove bolts from the legs that hold the front fender on. They are small and very prone to breaking. I am blessed with many local engineering shops from platers to engine shops and the dark art of metal finishing. The brake pistons are custom made stainless steel by a small shop that makes model engines for hobby aircraft. [/QUOTE]
