i have the street heat but i think this applies to track heat users as well


1. i have studs, but nothing to tighten them with besides my hands.... how do i get those on tight

2. how in holy hell do the nuts get on the studs, becuase the way the intake is shaped makes it a royal pain in the *** to get the nut on, and even to tighten it is horrid.

3. PCV extension, the intake is a bit larger then stock and the rubber hose from upper to lower for the pcv won't reach, should i jsut hardware store it, and get a long enough hose?

distributer won't be an issue

just that im building a motor on the side... and i don't think i can have the upper on the lower when i chain it up to the hoist. so i would have to put the intake on while its in the car and that makes life a bitch lol
