me and a friend are trying to install an bassani xpipe on a 98 gt mutang and we cant seem to get the right side exhaust manifold bolts off, any advice? also exactly what size is the bolt? thanks for any help

 

If i remember correctly, it was a 17mm. Squirt the **** out of it with WD-40 or liquid wrench. Theres like a gasket on the passenger side. Most of the time, you will need a impact gun with a swivel to get it un-done.

If you got one hell of a breaker bar, get it out.. Those suckers are on reallll tight.

 

well i think its closer to 18 but im having trouble with the lower pass. side i have a swivel and cant get the damned thing off

 

Like he said, squirt the hell out of it with nutbuster. When I changed the Cobra exhaust it wouldn't budge even with an impact. The guy squirted nutbuster on it and in a few minutes it came off so easy I asked him if he had stripped the head off.

 

Heat it up. If will come off very easy

 

First get some Iron III Oxide, Then mix it evenly with Powdered aluminum. lace the bolts with this mixture and get a magnesium strip to light it. don't look at it nor stand by it wehn u light, and bolt will be burn to nothing.

 

Thanks for the suggestion, MCGuyver

 

LOL

 

thanks for the suggestions guys, i got it last night thanks to yall. now my friend saved himself 100$ by us putting his offroad x-pipe in (which sounds sweet) and i got some experience when i plan to do my own exhaust on my L.
