Default Runner removal help:(

Anyone around Waterford, Mi willing to lend me a hand? I cannot get the runners off of my 85 vette. I can't get the back torx bolt, I got the rest out but could not get the back one. I have a new set of ported ones I would like to put on. I would love to know the trick.

Those can be a real pain. Do you have a (good quality) long (extended) torx bit or what are you using? Try a breaker bar? Sometimes hitting the end of the bolt with a hammer to try to free it up a bit helps.

I've had mine apart to do the injectors and pretty soon I've gotta port my intake and put my SLPs on. All comes down to time....

Good luck.

Matthew
