New Buffalo Mechanic

[C-SIDE]

Anyone know a good mechanic in New Buffalo, MI. Tried to take off my exhaust manifold as it is starting to rust and 2 bolts just will not come out. Tried and tried, but those bolt heads are semi-stripped and stuck.

What turned out to be a simple job, has turned into a pain in the rear. Dealing with stripped bolts and the possibility of them breaking is beyond my skill set.

Any references would be great

Thanks,
Chris

Thats who I would have said to call as well however I asked him to do a compression check last week and he seemed like he was swamped and said hes a few weeks out. Try giving Jeff Witherspoon a call over at Shoreland Marine in Michigan City. They have been VERY good getting out to work on boats early in the season here and hes always been the most fair with prices and quality work.

I take it Oselka said they are too busy to tackle it?

I called Brien and never got a call back. So I called someone else up in NB and he is swamped. He also said he wouldn't work on a boat up on blocks at Osleka's, in the water is another story, but not on blocks.

Oselka's is going to do it - they are just slow as they are also swamped. Hopefully, I can get this thing floating in the next week or 2 - I'm getting antsy

Thanks guys,
Chris
