How do you remove the dowels from the block when doing a 1600 conversion? |

Mine was stuck really good, I wouldnt recommend this way but I slowly drilled away at it until it was almost gone then I spilt it using a small chisel, be careful and you won't damage the block |

Use a drill slightly larger than the inside of the dowel. Drill slow and it should grab it and spin it out. |

Well then use the methods above but I hope you don't have to reuse the dowels. |

What do you mean by dowel? The stud that's threaded in or the bush type thing that's pressed in? |

The piece of round tube. The studs where easy. |

use a heat gun/blow torch and heat up the area around it then use vicegrips/pliers |

Squirt in a couple of applications of some CRC days/weeks before you want to pull them out with Vise-Grips. |

Invest in a good quality set of vice grips and if it's still hard to get out ask a local mechince if he can do it for you are you planing on reusing the studs or getting new ones?? |

If Vise Grips don't work find an old bolt that JUST fits into the dowel. Put a couple of spots of weld on the outer edge of the dowel where the it meets the bolt. Turn the lot with a spanner. If it won't turn, use a slide hammer on the bolt. |

They are really stuck in there. I think I'll get the old man to attack them with the welder. |
