I've looked at a lot of sites...no luck. Is this going to be a salvage yard item? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,636 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,636 | | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,834 Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) | | Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,834 | Have you tried your local Chevy dealer's parts department?

To keep from pulling the pan to drive out from the bottom I made up a bolt with a slide hammer hook to pull one out from above. The inside of the tube has to be threaded with a tap so the puller bolt can screw in. Many times the tube will start turning in the block and upward pressure while turning will work it out.
