I had a crack running through the back bolthole, and I opted to take a pc of steel, about .312" thick, and drilled/tapped for 8/32 countersunk screws into alum. housing to secure the plate. Drilled and tapped to thread in a stud, and left the existing threads intact. Loctited a stud into the "new" hole, and i figured the width of the plate would distribute the load somewhat away from the hole. Did this in 2008 and it's still 100%.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
