how many bolts does the stock manifold have i can only see and squirt three on each side i know theres got to be one in the back i need to get under to shot, but how many are on thier, and if this damn weather would coraperarte i could get her on jack stands and do a whole days worth of soaking, starting, soaking, starting, when it come to bolts and pb blaster, i dont play , i seriously dont play, im on a limited budget here and dont need to pull heads, screw that mess lol

 

six bolts on each side

 

is thier really aluminum covers over those bolts someone told there is a cover that covers those bolts, have i been spraying the wrong damn bolts

 

On the stock manifold there is some sort of heat shield so that might be the cover you are talking about.

 

so how do i get that shield off, ill look under the damn car

 

I believe the shield is screwed in with the manifold bolts. This was more than 10 years ago that I did it.
