    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.

    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.
    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.
