All that money you spent and you cheaped out on the new bolts? The way I saw it, I'm only going to do this once. The spec I have reads 74 lbft + 120° Where did you find 165 lbft? Quote:
At stock power I added inserts. The stiffer rear sway I bought has been in my garage for 5 years.

In that thread he also talks about re-using the bolts being a non-issue. I'll let you guys know if I have to re-do anything or have a bolt failure. I expect zero issues.

I definitely agree. Not that i'm trying to go cheap, well sorta, but I like doing one mod at a time and with only headers intake tune, I think a good starting place is the bushings as mentioned here. The stamped steel parts and soft bushings I'm sure will eventually be a weak point. |

Hello again acammer, another quick question please, on the install of the NEW bushings, did you do them one at a time after you pushed the stock one out? Or did you press all the stockers out, then go back around to install the solid ones. Just curious as to the method and save some hassle hopefully. Thanks sir. They are going in Saturday..
