You can count on it, my Friend, it works! Your blissful drives are being undermined by the notorious "Chevy Exhaust Tick?"? it's very possible that the solution to your problems is right My initial thought was that the 0 Liter V8 would be much more special than it is. It seems it has many of the same problems as the majority of Chevy 6's. Exhaust manifold bolts cannot handle all the power of V8s with their raw uncensored power, as is the case with all of the 0 V8's. There was a tick on the engines driver's side rear manifold which screamed "FIX ME" after two of the bolts came loose. It took my mechanic's prognosis to stop me dead in my tracks, and my wallet to flee the scene. You're going to have to ante up quite the sum of money if you want to fix it the old fashioned way. It was just the thought of spending so much of those Big Benjamins that made me consult my 2nd favorite mechanic Look it up! A few minutes of online research had me feeling a little better about where I was in this situation. I learn later I had just joined an "elite" group of individuals that were all connected by that rhythmic ceremonial event - and hey misery loves company, I hope you don't stay miserable for too long there, my friend. Turn that frown upside down and go do it! The installation process I can assure you one thing if you decide to get down and dirty and install this little wonder Your best friend's sister will put you in more awkward positions than that wine cooler party you attended in 9th grade where you played twister with your best friend's (I won't admit to being an experienced one, but I can share one suggestion with you. The American Buffalo Wings or Shotgun Riders are both hot to my taste. The Red White and Blue are not one of those situations, so control your excitement by not getting you carried away by the excitement of getting your football. You can wait for the blue petroleum-guzzling beast to return to the road and do some manly stuff while you do so. Do not worry, unless you're one of those people who needs to stop halfway through and grab a "Pumpkin Spice Latte," you'll find it on the list! If you finish and the whole thing is bolted up, you will feel like a thousand dollars! Yes, You Will, because that's not so far off from what you might have spent if you had chosen one of your favorite options-.

I found it extremely difficult to install as a result of the clearance issue. It took me hours to come up with a solution that worked for me. Take time to find your calm place several times by walking away and finding it again. Two bolts are about the size of your fingerspread and they are supposed to fit into two holes that are not visible and are in a place that is too tight for any wrench or socket. As you work from top to bottom and back and forth many times, you'll have to go back and forth. This was the best advice that I got from ernies's A 4WD's driver's shaft should not be run in the front on a sedan. To remove the transmission drive shaft, you will need to remove 4 11mm. This is not something you need to remove. Up front, I needed some WD40 to break it free of rust and a prybar to remove it. On the top of the head, you can now see two bolt holes that you can only feel from the bottom. Removing the heat shield is the first step! On top of the heat shield, three 10mm nuts hold it in place. One you can see from the bottom and the other is reachable. I found the hardest part of this whole process was trying to hold the part in place and try to fish for the bolt holes blindly. To make up for the weight of the part, it wants to fall just as you are about to tighten a bolt. To overcome this, I used smaller bolts as pegs to anchor the bracket to I was able to use the 11mm ones from the driveshaft. To hold the bracket in place while I pegged it with the smaller bolts, I used a magnetic pick up tool. Now that it was already in place and the weight was supported, all that was left was to work one bolt at a time. I went above to find just enough clearance for me to thread in the top bolt, then I finger threw it into place and slid As soon as the bracket was in place, it was much easier to thread the lower bolt into the bracket. I used a 14mm socket, a wobble, and 18 inch extensions to thread the bolt When tightening up both bolts, I tightened them with a wrench once they were all the way in. Use a wrench to do this, but expect it to take 1/16th turn at a time. It wouldn't be useful anyway since there is no space for a torque wrench. Please read this and see if there's anything that can help In the same vein as that, this was great. The best part is you can leave the vehicle at any time and still be able to drive it. It is likely that something will break or snap when you pull heads. You are stranded if you do not have another vehicle. I wish you success, take your time and trust that it will work out. Finally, we reached the following conclusion.
