Did you ever get it out? I just pulled the heat shield off of the exhaust manfold on my gsr swap I just got from IAS and noticed two nuts were missing, one bolt was snapped and there is some sort of sealant all over the gasket. I left Larry Jr a message but I doubt he will do anything about it.

Here's some pics:

nope. use vice grips to turn it out (Take exhaust manifold off first)

when you remove them, soak in PB blaster first. Then to remove them, put a socket on it and lightly tap with a hammer to break it loose. Apply anti seize when putting them back in.

I snapped the top left stud when fitting my JDM 4-1 about 3/4 months ago, at the time i was so pissed after having swapped the stock one on my own that i couldnt be bothered pulling the whole thing off again to replace the stud, so i left it and kept an eye on it to make sure i wasnt getting blow-out and its been fine, i think i'll just leave it till i ever have to take the header off again, its too much bother for the sake of one stud/bolt!
