I’m grinding the T40 bolts that hold the balancer to the Lowe case half, Mick. There are 3 on each side and I can’t get them to budge to save my life.

An impact driver did do something, it stripped out two of the bolts

If I remember correctly they are torqued to around 20 ft lbs with red locktite. The impact driver was rated to 300 lbs and I hit them with a torch first. No luck so I’m just gunna grind them off and hope I don’t damage the assembly.
