Intercooler Fix?

My L is at the dealer for the intercooler fix and the dealer called to say that SVT's intercooler kit does not include the bolts... Some of the bolts on the motor are 1 time use and then they have to be replaced so i wanna know if anyone has had the same happen to them? Now i am without my L until monday...

Thanks, Justin

I'm dropping my 99 off tomorrow for the intercooler fix on Monday/Tuesday. I will let you know what they say.

Had the intercooler fix on my 99 two weeks ago and it only took them about 3 1/2 hours. No mention of any bolt problem.
I am very sceptical of any dealer, but they really did a good clean job on mine,in and out, and clean.

Got it back today. Everything looks and runs fine. No charge for any of the work done, all under warranty (intercooler fix and a few other minor things). The s/c sounds the same, and they didn't mess up my nicely detailed engine compartment

I took mine to dealer for the infamous front-end *clunk*. Dealer called and told me would do intercooler fix if I could leave it an additional day.

Got the truck back a day later with new intercooler, new *star* washer fix and 2 new front tires. No charge for anything.
