i had a torque wrench but it was broke..

1.hand tighten bolts outside first then the 6 inner bolts. basically go left-right, up-down. so that the seals close evenly then tighten the 6 middle bolts.. if you need the bolt patterns to tighten them let me know. if not the youtube DIY video shows..

2.the GLUE is only for the upper middle 6 bolts... and to hold the spacer in place just line it up place the upper plenum on top and gently place bolts in and hand tighten.. BUY Blue locktite (find them at any autoparts store)


if you have any questions email me at infamouzg35@yahoo.com

HERE IS THE PDF FOR MOTORDYNE SPACER INSTALL http://www.motordyneengineering.com/...pID=9&CDpath=0
***ITS THE FIRST LINK THAT SAYS PDF**

HOPE THIS HELPS

Jamal dun give non ****s bout performin, all about lookin' fly

I am slowly creeping towards this.

If you're an idiot, don't use a torque wrench you'll probably put it in ft-lbs. If you can operate a drill, use a torque wrench as people who ride the short bus can get the hang of them.

Just PLEASE make sure it's INCH-LBS. Please.

Save yourself the $60 and do it yourself, I did mine in the rain and it sucked. (don't worry got the plenum back in place before it started to rain, just had to figure out the torque specs in the rain)

I can understand why you'd rather not do it yourself. Most people don't have an inch/pound torque wrench, and you never know what could go wrong. I've read about people snapping bolts etc.
If you'd rather not do it yourself, call Sash at SG Motorsports. His shop is in Brampton.
