dumb question - ls6 intake bolts, individual removal?
im just trying to simply install nitrous brackets. Not wanting to remove the entire intake for this task obviously...
I loosened the two bolts i need to remove all the way, they still didn't want to come off. Wrestled one out, but the other won't give at all. It's loose threadwise, but i can't remove it from the intake....
what is the trick?
or is it because i have no movement on the intake since im just loosening two and its resting against something i can't see??
i feel like a retard.

nope, no dice. i wonder if its because it was powder coated, and they didnt tape off those holes... so the stem of the bolt won't come through? idk its really annoying and my fingers are raw. LOL

I'm out of ideas. It's even difficult to get the one that I got out, back in. Has to be a trick without taking the whole intake out! Lol it's the bolt teeth pattern / combined with powdercoat I think....

im getting ******* pissed lol. Three people have tried.... bolt is completely loose but stuck in the intake housing

I installed my LS6 intake yesterday and all 10 bolts dropped right in. They also came right out of my old LS1 intake. The intake has 2 or 4 bosses that line up with counterbores in the heads to align it. I'm not understanding if you are having trough re installing the intake or still having trouble with a bolt or two.
