R27 Exhaust Nut Removal
Instead, carefully cut the collar most of the way through, with a hacksaw blade or a Dremel tool, stopping before you cut into the exhaust threads of the head, and then finish splitting it with a chisel.
The collar is available from Vech at Bench Mark Works, for example:
18 11 4 090 110--$36.00--exhaust coupling nut R24 R26 R27 pss
Good luck!

R27 Exhaust Nut Removal
R27 Exhaust Nut Removal
I need to remove the R27 exhaust pipe nut so that I can replace the sealing ring under the nut. The problem is that the nut will only loosen up about 1/3 of a turn. It tightens up fine but will only loosen up a little bit. I've tried soaking it in PB solvent and then repeatedly tightening and loosening it but no luck. I don't want to apply too much pressure for fear of stripping something out. Does anyone have any experience with this problem?
