Ok so heres my new problem

My O/R X was bent at one spot so it had a leak. Today my friend and I take the X off and I bend it back to the way it goes. So hes bolting back one side and Im bolting on another and hes like wtf this nut wont go one all the way. Well, the bolt from the manifold is stripped. No matter what I do I cant get a nut onto it at all. I need to get this ****ing thing off. How?

Also while I had my car up on jacks I painted my calipers and gas tank. I dont think Ive seen anyone on here do the tank before. Heres a pic of it up on the stands. It looks better when its on the ground.



Ill post pics of the calipers tomorrow. It got too dark for pics.

Do you mean the stud is stripped? If you, to get it out, you're going to have to double nut it probably and use some vice grips to get it out. Its going to be a pain in the ass. I promise. Do a search on here for a Prochamber stud replacement.

Well, if I could get two nuts on it I wouldnt need to take the stud out. Its stripped near the stop of the stud.

I could just put shorty headers on it
