    Down pipe troubles

    Kay, I've finally got off my arse to install those new rod bearings in my car and I snagged a problem. The down pipe is in my way and I can't seem to break those bolts. What can i use???? and are there any other alternatives to taking off the down pipe to access the bottom end?

      PB Blaster works wonders on those downpipe bolts. Might need a breaker bar too.

                          You could always drill it out. Were you using the right size socket??? If your gonna sell your car over a stripped bolt thats just...retarded.

                            it's not just that, this car has been giving me shit since day one. Unless you know a place they sell 'stip out' sockets I gotta cut my loses.

                              hammer and a large et of vise grips use crc or seafoam deep creep pb is the ***.lock the vise grips on the bolt as tight as you can get them and tap it loose with the hammer will work garunteed

                              if not take the entire header off and drop the dp at the cat
