i am in need of some dire help. i am in the middle of a BERK HFC install as we speak. i cannot, for the life of me, get the two top cat to header bolts off. the pass side i have rounded the bolt head and the driver side is such an extreme angle around the sterring shaft that i cannot get my socket assembly on it properly to get it off either. i need suggestions please!

 

Did you spray either wd40 or break free on the bolts the night prior?

That usually helps ALOT.

 

From what I've read around here, HFCs are one of those installs that pays for itself in time and energy saved.

 

I had the same issue. I had to take it in to a shop because the bolts were ceased. They literally had to drop the motor in the back in order to get these damn things out. I would recommend taking it in.

 

Torch it
