I just pulled the head cover off my z6 to adjust my valves and two of the bolts were seized and came off with the threads so now they are stpipped I know how to fix it(hela coil)but is this common.It ever happen to annyboady else?
Also I had(I took them out 2 months ago) pollyeurothane motor mount inserts and i just noticed that one of the bolts that hold the top left motor mount to the block is broken so it only holding on by one.Could my little z6 have enough torque to snap the bolt?I think Im going to dump the turbo idea for now and save for an H22.....then turbo it...........wait,then I would have to change my user name
Well just thought Id share the events of my shitty *** hot saterday with yall.

 

i have never heard about a broken mount BOLT, ever.

those things are high grade and strong as hell..


alota peple strip those valve cover nuts/studs. go easy on them obviously yours were stuck or something.. weird.

 

I know those bolts are suposed to be grade 8 but the dam thing broke!I guess i will have to pull the engone before i boost it to extract it.

 

I broke the bolts for the rear lower tranny mount. It also broke the tranny. I have a huge piece missing from it and all three bolts are gone. One of them is still stuck deep in the tranny. I launched at the rev limit racing a probe(I lost ) back when I was running N/A. I guess someone was trying to tell me to buy an SI tranny.
