    Well between the vacuum and a tool from harbor freight I was able to get all of it out. Now my torque wrench was broken and it snapped a manifold stud off with very little pressure. Now I have to get another stud and hopefully all will be well. Then I can trade this thing before I go broke. lol The old basket was all to pieces I guess the dealer used the old torque specs. I did a search but I'm confused on the torque specs. Do I use 13 ft lbs on the nuts on all four corners and 16 ft lbs on the long studs that go through the upper chamber? Also I checked online and I don't see a listing for the intake studs online, are they a dealer only item?

    Thanks,
