Ufff. Unless you weld it. The head is trash.

You could have it welded or braised most likely what happened is the bolt to the fuel rail bottomed out make sure their the right length bolts.

[red2k5timmy]

ugh.....why are people so careless? yes I will make sure the bolt length is correct, too bad the previous owner of this thing didn't...what a tard

[mko]

yeah you want to get that welded. It shouldnt cost much. As for the bolt, you can do it w/o a bolt there. Just make sure the other two are tight or get one of these thread inserts.
