Hey,
I just finished installing my heads, and was installing the bolts in the side of the passenger head that are located behind the power steering pump, and was wondering if anyone has left this bolt out to make future head removal easier?? I put the higher bolt back in, because that one is accesible with the power steering in place, but the lower one that is right behind the pulley is kind of a pain, and I was wondering how necessary it is to have??
Thanks,
Brandon

simple

hmmm head bolt.............yeah its important

He is NOT talking about an "actual" head bolt..He is talking about the bolts that hold the accessory bracket on the front passenger side of the car..And yes, I would put all the bolts back in since that is a fairly heavy bracket..Just use a 9/16" wrench and its not hard..

Haha yeah, I dont think coolant runs through the power steering bracket. But ok, Ill spend the 5 minutes and put it back in

Yeah I allways put it back in, although a few times I have forgotten it upon disassembly , kinda funny when the head doesnt move and you think its fully unbolted....
