Default Skunk2 IM Problem, Skunk2 IM Users Please Check In

Hey guys I installed my skunk2 Pro Series intake manifold for my D16z6. And I can't get my clamp into that big coolant line. There is no way that I can squeeze the clamp in. The coolant line is on there snug and when I pull on the coolant line it doesn't move or anything. I don't want to be driving and then this line moves off. Any suggestions?

B) get bigger clamp

I'm surprised they haven't fixed that. Had one of the first Skunk2 Pros and found the same issue. I took the grinding wheel and just cut enough metal off the runner so the clamp would clear it.

That was like 4 years ago.

That's not what I meant, what I'm trying to say is. The coolant line is sitting right on the runner. It's too tight to fit a clamp in there.

I guess this is the only route I have to go. Thanks for the input.

Yes that is the only option.
