ok. so i decided to start on my nitrous installation. for those of you following my upgrades, i purchased the nx plate system.

when i took the throttle body off... the top 2 bolts came right out. on the bottom... the nut came off only and the bolts are still in there...

so, before i start cranking down on these... what is the proper way to get them out? the plate system came with 4 new longer bolts and 2 new gaskets to hold the t.b. and the plate on.

anyone who has this system will be a great help. thanks in advance.

I think they're studs - you can screw both nuts on one side, then use two wrenches to tighten the nuts against each other. Once locked together, you can back the stud out by turning the inside nut counterclockwise. Once the stud is out, use two wrenches to loosen the two nuts and repeat the procedure on the other side.
