bolt doesn't fit in manifold... WHAT TO DO?
hey i was just installing my manifold and realized that the top left bolt does not fit because the runner is in the way. it is a tubular manifold and the runner doesn't allow enough room to fit the bolt in there. would it be a bad idea to not run with this bolt in. any suggestions? thanks alot for any help

use studs and nuts. pull the manifold out and thread th stud ad thread as you push the manifold in.

would it be bad to not put that one bolt in. would there be a leak?

Although you've provided little information for us to help you with, it sounds like bad craftsmanship/poor manifold

My Drag manifold is a huge pain in the ***. There are 3 bolts that you have to just keep threading and inching the manifold on, all the others are fine though.

Re: bolt doesn't fit in manifold... WHAT TO DO? (dtmamg)
the problem is that there is no room to turn the bolt once the stud is through the manifold. the stud sits too close to the manifold. it is the top left bolt on the manifold. i tightened all the other bolts, do you think it will be a noticable leak??
