I got a massive leak My bbk intake I installed did not seat like they said it would. I disconnected the maf to let the car idle and I could see the intake bouncing around. Do I need to change the valley cover bolts or the crossover pipe. Man am I pissed!!!!

no they are snug actually I may have broke one in my head which I will be relly pissed to find out. The intake diidn't seat snug like I wanted but I buttoned it up because I ran out of daylight. It has something to do with maybe the crossover pipe or bolts. I heard of people grinding the intake down but I can't tell whats holding up?

Might be the valley cover bolts' heads; for my Professional
Products intake I was advised to use some button-head
Allen bolts instead and these give you about 1/4" less of
a chance to interfere. 8mm x 1.25 x 30mm. Pics of the
difference in this thread, down at post #5
