Well I went to a shop today to get my HFCs installed and they got all the bolts but one, the driver side top one. Its stripped and they couldnt do anything else so we put it all back together. They said it was too tight an area for them to weld or cut.

So is it too tight to get in there to weld or cut? And if I can weld another bolthead on it still may not come off. They used all the right and best tools so I guess that thing is on tight. Plus Im not about to spend alot for a few hp.

Any suggestions on how to get it off?
