bloody exhaust heatshield bolts
how rusted on are they ffs, need to grind them off, btw with after market headers are the heatshields used, it would be a shame to have loverly stainless steel and put those rusty sh1tes back on
any ideas
also how to get the cam sprockets off the 'drivers side' doesnt seem to be much to wedge between the sprockets?

Heastshields are there to reduce/deflect the hot air from the d/p and turbo away from the engine.
You can wrap the d/p in heat wrap and wrap the turbo in a specifically designed bag instead of the heatshields. The turbo bags are a bit pricey though.
