Heated the case again for 15 min. All 24 studs came out including the 7 broken dilivar studs. When I delivered my parts to the machine shop the owner said to me " We put the case in an oven and take them out for free as we hate solving client mishaps" Still very satisfying to have done it myself.
not a better feeling when you are sitting back staring at it after with a beer in hand !!!
