stripped bolts during tear down, ----
i stripped a bolt on the dizzy, a nut on the oil pickup, and somewhere else but i forgot where.. anyone have any tips for gettin em out with a bare ------ minimum of tools? i got random sockets layin around the garage.. gettin a new set tomorrow.. any other reccomended buys for semi cheap while im at it?
btw what gaskets are needed to replace
i bought a water and oil pump, those came with gaskets.. so all i should need is a HG, intake, exhaust, oil pickup and
?
thanks for the input.. pics will be up in a seperate thread later with progress on my first honda build

oil pickup doesn't have a gasket. there isnt much danger in the oil leaking into the oil.
the stripped nut is no biggie, spin the stud out and replace it. the dizzy bolt...if its the top one you can replace the cam cap. otherwise run 2 dizzy bolts no big deal.

vise grips own those problems.

well, the oil pickup has an oring that should be replaced. if it goes bad the pump will suck air instead of oil. also, the cam gear, as long as its going back on the same style head cam etc. it wont need lined up. set the timing marks if there is not belt on it, and put the gear on aligning it w/ the key *only 1 way it can go on*.
