It sits on the driver sidde I belive there's a tranmission ground that sits above it

 

you might have to use like a 5/16 or something

 

Yeah, I don't care what it takes, that bitch is coming out today!

 

stupid gm using metric on some parts and english on others lol

 

Did u ever get it? I thought they were all 6s good thing I have Allen key set includes half sizes and standard sized :p

 

Last night I went to bed frustrated, and now I'm at work. So, when I get off at 4:30 I'm gonna go home and put the vice grips on it and try to get it out. I gotta get it done tonight because I'm having it towed to the shop tomorrow morning. Everything else is ready to go.

 

hopefully it should work just get enough of the pliars on the head of that damn bolt. lol

 

Yeah, I'm gonna go commando on it if that doesn't work.

 

that is what I am talking about. show that 2.2 whose boss lol

 

umm you're not going to wear underwear if that idea doesn't work..

dude.. common thats gross

 

i go comando in my uniform its comfterable lol

 

lol
the last pages i read are hilarious haha

can't wait to start dealing with it myself hah

 

No, you really don't. You might have better luck with it though. I started jacking with this bolt at 5, and it's 7 now. Shows you how shitty this is becoming for me. I've never felt so humiliated by a bolt.

I tried the grip locks but when I turn they slip off every time. Back to it.

Anyways, I ended up going to walmart to get a 6mm hex socket, and I JB Welded that onto the bolt.

Tomorrow when I get up, it will be solid as a rock, and I'll pry it off.

 

hahaha won't work :p but who knows u need some one on top to put pressure down in the Allen while u put pressure to turn it

 

Yea if knew someone with a portable 110v MIG welder that coulda buzzed that thing around just wait a few minutes for it to cool off and bam goto town on it! Woulda worked amazing. I love my MIG welder... it doesn't get appreciated enough around the shop.

 

You know, you should make a turbo oil reservoir and include a pump. I'd buy it....at this point.

 

Update: I'm paying a mechanic to come out to my house tomorrow evening to take the damn thing out.

So, I don't care if anyone says I bitched out, I gotta do what I gotta do to get this thing running.

So, if all goes well, pics tomorrow of the finishing build!

 

could someone post a picture of this gallery plug (think thats hwhat its called)
i was looking back there and didn't see it..

 

u know u can just use another plug right, that's just convinient because it's in the back, try one next to it :p

 

well good luck man

 

Once you take off the manifold, if you look down, it's right under the water pipe.

I hope yours comes off a lot easier than mine. Oh, and I know there's more than one plug, but I didn't want to end up stripping all of them and end up having to drill into it. That would probably not end well.

 

ahahahah more pics hoe :p less talking more taking pics

 

more pics x2

 

Tonight I'll have it all on, excluding the exhaust. I'll take lots of pictures to gloat with.

And tomorrow comes tha vidzzzz!
