Hi All,
I have recently purchased a set of stainless manifolds from hi-tek for my 5.0L MPI. However, after two hours of mucking around with the head bolts in I have only manage to get the outer two in and I am thoroughly stumped. There doesn’t seem to be enough room for me to even get the bolts in the holes let alone get a wrench in there to torque them up.
I have seen that a few people on here have purchased stainless manifolds from hi-tek for their boats and I was wondering if you could share any tips, techniques or special tools that you used to install yours.
I would post some pics of my set up to make things clearer but am not sure how to do this with my phone (Galaxy S2).
Cheers
