Better a bolt than the lower intake itself cracking like mine did.

That's how it usually goes... Hopefully it's not below the head surface, so that when the intake comes off you can grab it with pliers... Good luck

haha
that's so true. When I'm working along and everything seems to go fine, I'm nervous cause I know that something has to give me a hard time, and it eventually does happen.

Yeh, I guess I am glad it was just a bolt. It put up a fight though, because it broke below the surface
I just finished putting my intake back on...all new APR's now
Ez outs are great to have in your toolbox, I highly recommend them.
........Now, Lets see what else I can break
