mini ram help
Hi i bought a used mini ram and went to install it today and i'm having trouble getting the middle bolts in.Obviously i can't use my factory tor-x bolts so i went and got some boxed head bolts.But i still can't get them in.On the drivers side it looks like its grinded out a little from tpis but not enough and then nothing on the passenger side.Do i need special bolts or grind it out or am i just stupid. Thanks for your help.

Re: mini ram help
I have just been looking at some pics of other peoples's mini ram's and mine is different.I'm wondering if maybe i got an older intake or something.It doesn't have the opening in the middle of the intake like the other ones i seen.

Re: mini ram help
Get some ARP intake manifold bolt set. I think I know what you are talking about, the Miniram has small "pockets" for the mainifold bolts. Im running a set of ARP bolts on mine and have ZERO issues with it. They have a 7/16" hex head on them kinda like header bolts.
