Bruce, I did my 1750 some 20 years ago. I didn't get it drilled quite as straight as I hoped, but it is close and the TA goes in and seats with both studs with no problems.

Surprisingly it did not leak at full temp with the remaining stud. I do have new studs which I purchased years ago for just a situation and I'll be replacing both at the same time. These are pretty small studs (3 mm dia.?) in a very constricted space for tool insertion and manipulation. Has anyone tackled this problem with the engine in the car ?
