oKAY, BROKE THE DAD GUM Oil Pressure sWITCH!!! tHIRD INTAKE SWAP AND JUST NOW BROKE ONE. Question, before i broke it and got pissed off, i had the intake sitting on, but it was wabbling back and forth, like it was sitting on my valley cover bolts, did anyone have issues like this? Is that what it's sitting on? I have LS6 Coolant lines, so nope, that's not it. SOmebody hELP It looks good though, and otta wait til wednesday to finish install cause of pressure switch!

 

i had to grind down the heads of th valley cover bolts a little to make it sit down all the way and also i took those little plastic clip things of the wires that go to the knock sensors. then is sat down on the heads just fine

 

i'll try the plastic first, but i really hope i don't have to grind them, i would rather order a set of bolts that are lower heads, like the fasts do

 

Add some pics for reference

 

hm, did ne1 else run into this problem with the bolts? i'm about to do the swap myself and I want to have all the parts ahead time

 

I was reading some detailed threads about this from the Pro Prod. guy on here, and he said he has had some issues, mainly with early models i belive is what he said.

 

Yep, they had a new installation kit with thicker gaskets that are supposed to eliminate the problem

 

i have the thicker gaskets, still hits, so i'm gonna get little smaller headed bolts

 

I love the Rockstar can sitting on your car. Gotta keep that energy up for those frustrating times!

 

Ha ha, yeah, got some bolts from work with a slightly smaller head on them, gonna give them a shot, and jsut picked up the oil pressure switch, so let's see if this thing will go together tonight

 

hhm, yea you have the blue fuel rails, i believe that means you have an earlier model then.

which gaskets do you have? are they black or dark grey?

 

Dark Grey Gaskets, no o-rings in them, just solid grey. But i tell you what, install complete. As of now, no manifold leaks, turned key on, fixed two stupid my fault fuel leaks from lines coming loose during install that i knew about and didn't fix first, but no fuel leak issues, seal seems good, have ticking, but it's my stinkin crap lifters and exhaust leak form headers. Other than that, very happy with manifold so far.
