my tb has the back of the screws mushroomed.. they will never come out without the use of a dremel.

Beaflag VonRathburg 10-11-2008 07:23 PM

Mine just broke off when I went to take the damn things out. I don't see how a stock one could ever come out. I have a set of LS1 pistons that a guy had the same thing happen to.

SoxXpupPeT 10-11-2008 07:40 PM

all bolts are or should be mushroomed. from carbs to TB's that sucks real bad man. if it was just the piston thatd be one thing. but that head is fairly fucked :\

BBk should cover it. LOL That would be a dream.

That TB has been on there since about 2001, and as you can tell we have ported on it a little.

A screw took out my motor also just diferent screw, it shatterd the stock piston into about 5 peices and the car only has 29,000 miles to top it off.
