Well, I finally got my intake today from Blue Oval Motorsports at about 6:00pm. So, I start switching the components from the Trick Flow to the Cobra and I tell you what, this intake has some ****ing casting problems. All the holes are burred and need to be tapped out, it came with no instructions, no lower intake gaskets, no EGR gasket which in the ad it said "all hardware included" and had a picture that showed all the gaskets and everything.
Anyways, I switch over the fuel rail and run in the bolts, well they bottom out.... I thought that it was just the ****ty threads on the intake, but I end up breaking the bolt off in the manifold. I snapped it at the front driver side. Well, I figured that the bolts are only there to keep the fuel rail from pushing up, but I tighten three of them down as far as they will go (probably a full turn from going in all the way) and continue.
I fire it up and it sounds great, idles good, revs good, no leaks.. temp looks good. So I take it for a spin and punch the gas, it takes off and I smell fuel bad. I pop the hood and there is fuel by the front four injectors. So bad it is dripping on the ground and leaving a trail as I drive. I quickly bring it back and park it.
I guess all I want to know here is how in the hell I get this snapped off bolt out of the hole? Anybody have any secrets or easy ways to get this out? I really don't want to take the lower manifold off and get it pulled out proffessionally because I need this car for work and I am screwed right now. Please... somebody help.
