yeah I had problems with the GTSpec bar install as well...you get one side in then tried putting the bolt on the other side and it just wouldnt work...I had to use a screwdriver to bend it enough to actually allow some movement/wiggle room to put the bolt through. ohhwell...Anyways does anyone recommend anything in my engine bay besides what I posted?

no problem, just mask off the inside area where the bar touches and use a rag when bending the bar into place.
