I will ask them to try that.

interesting, i'll try that.

Since your bolt is stripped my suggestion might not work as I was speaking to those having stuck bolts that haven't been stripped out.

However a suggestion for stripped bolts...I have at times used a punch and hand-sledge and tapped the stripped bolt inward a bit. Then I tighten up the bolt a bit. This can cause the stripped threads to recut. Then I would perform the "torch and Liquid Wrench" action. Then after the 1/2 hour I could then back out the bolt. This "hammering" trick doesn't always work however. I would say for me the "hammering" trick only worked 50% of the time.

Well Im not usre if the threads are stripped or the bolt head is just rounded out. I will have to check that when I get a shop to put it up on a lift to look at it. Im thinking the bolt never even turned for them.

Oh OK.. I assumed you meant the threads stripped.

I'll be honest man, in all my years, i've never once seen a supposed performance shop just quit altogether, shows a serious lack of professionalism, they didnt even say "well we're going to think of a new strategy, bring it back in tomorrow and we'll give it another go", pisses me off man.

Nope and I really dont want them touching the car again and possibly screwing things up tryin things they arent capable of doing. I will just find a shop that is compfortable with a torch and all and see how things go. But you can bet I wont be recommending them to anyone I know. So for those around the El Paso area do not go to Lunas Performance shop.

Or Evolution Motorsports. Basically one other place with any kind of rep to go to, its called "Imirj Auto" give them a call, pronounced "emerge".

That just sucks balls, did they charge you for their **** up? cause basically they could not complete the task they were hired for.. makes me sick

Im not happy today! , I got crawled past today by a Mustang GT with full bolt ons. sob

sounds like you need some G3's, CBE, and a tune! Is yours an auto or 6mt?

That what makes it even harder to swallow, I sold all my goodies including my AP when I was faced with losing my Z, now I have just as my sig, its M BTW.
It was a fancy GT, loads done, my traction cost me, I had him up to the top of third gear, no biggie, just screaming for that extra 500 rpm

Pissed me ,as I have NEVER been done by a Mustang... ever lol

Oh yes, i remember that, made me sad. I'll be sure to shyt on a few at the drags tomorrow night in your name bud.

Yeah man, do that ;-) I am on the re rise so to speak, just funds are much more limited, I am still in the game
