Hey guys, for all of you that don't know me my name is Steven. I have a 2008 LS L61

Not technically cobalt related, but I picked up a couple rockymounts tierod's for my mountain bikes. I was over my cheap racks and I got these for $100 (150 each new). The build quality is excellent and the locks seem on par or better than my yakima ones.
I also got my dual pass installed on the manifold today after having to order a replacement manifold. Does anyone have any advice on bleeding a dual pass without option b? I assume the same way you would a regular endplate.
On the zzp instructions for the option b there is one hose that you run to the bottom intake manifold by drilling and tapping into it. If someone else has a different hose diagram that avoids that then I might do it
I finally got the header installed today. Turns out two of the manifold studs were broken in the block. Was a little bit of a headache, but it sounds good
