    I'd like to say YES on the Loctite.
    Once you drill the brass out large enough (start with a small drill), you can try to split the "tube" that's left and it will drop out.

    The last thing you want are those screws going into tour intake!

    Alright guys, I was able to complete the install finally. Thanks to having a machinist for a neighbor, he took the broken bolt out and it took about 2 hours to tidy everything up. I had a 91 tune from Venomous1 also, this thing moves now!! Thank you everyone

    It looks nice and shiny!
    If you want to make the intake clean(er) :),
    some kind of spray soap works well. Don't use a solvent as it is a very light powder coat and I've seen solvents and hard rubbing take it off.
    Go have some fun!

    Would dishwasher or car wash soap work? I've been meaning to clean, gets dirtier every time I work around the engine

    Liquid dishsoap cuts grease. Just as long as it isn't an abrasive.
