...do you know if the brake booster vac line do i just pop off the rubber line from the metal or should I just unscrew it at the plenum?
Sorry for the dealy; I always just unscrew at the plenum.

Oh, and I only use a torque wrench up top when replacing the intake base, and then in the specified order and stages. For runners I just use "feel" till snug and then check manifold vac on startup.

haha sadly I am very good with helicoils but only due to friends who screw stuff up and are not smart enough to learn how to do it themselves.

Thanks, I figured it would be easier than trying to wrestle it out the other way.
