broken thermostat housing bolt
#4
well, i just got back from Brad's place. by the time i got over there, the other bolt broke too. with the tstat housing off, both bolts stick out almost 1/2". we didnt have vise-grips...but i spent some time welding some 3/8 nuts on the studs, but no matter what...they wouldnt take a weld! so at this point, i think we will swap out to my old performer 4bbl intake(he might get a adapter to run the fairly new 2bbl)
