did you follow proper procedure?
as in keep retorqueing them for about 3 days?
because heating them up and cooling them down will cause the bolts to expand and become loose.. you gotta keep retorqueing them
also, did you soak your paper gaskets in water before the installation? that can be another reason96 Camaro M5.

No. I hear they leak bad if you try to install the pacesetters with metal gaskets. Just call pacesetter and see if they will send you another set of gaskets.<a href=\"http://www.onid.orst.edu/~waltejam/\" target=\"_blank\">98 Bright Red Camaro</a><br />Too many mods to list....check my websiteComment
