What bolts did you have to grind down? Was it because you have a 01...
I had no problems installing my Prochamber.....

original driver's side studs have shoulders on them that kind of hinder a good seal with mac's design.

I believe its NAPA part # 600-1819 but its been quite a while since i did the install. Just remember when you do the install get plenty of extensions for the passenger side (including swivel ext. if possible). And also, bring your patience along because it can get to be a real pain in the ass to get it to fit with the catback and the headers all at once. The key is to slide the flange into the header bolts barely and then pop the front on to the catback and then tighten it all down. Definitely good if you have a friend or two to help also.

Most people get a leak on the drivers side flange where it meets the exhaust manifold. The reason for this is because there is a shoulder on one of the bolts that goes through the plate that puts pressure on the flange. This prevents you from torquing (in most cases) the flange down to seal the joint.
