[QUOTE="gunnerzz, post: 1064736933, member: 166532"] I am not worried abt engine internals, only the seals. Thats a thick piece of aluminium thus takes longer for the surrounding to heats up. If the area is spacious to weld and drill then i do believe it can be welded while the engine is in the car. Weld a bit then stop, weld then stop, let the metal cool down in between weld.....Unless there is a seal very2 near to the weld area. Then again, if only one or a few seals and its easy to replace i will sacrifice the seals. Your dilemma is just like what i am experiencing with my BLM which got a worn out sub frame bush. To replace, workshop will remove the whole subframe so they can press the bush out. Labour is quoted between 300-500....for replacement of parts which cost only RM40. [/QUOTE]
