DONE! Welded a small wrench to the bolt and it turned right out, the feeling was amazing! Just got back from whipping the car around an EMPTY church parking lot... I love the car even more now that it actually works. VERY excited to get it to test and tune Wednesdays at the local track

Whew. This might have been the most emotionally draining repair I've ever been a part of.


Congrats!!

Trust me, it was very emotional when the bolt finally came out. I almost cried because it was so beautiful!
