Message	I wouldn't recommend using a torch. You'll probably need to heat it up ~150 degrees above room temp to get the bolt to be pushed out (still with some force). If anything I would recommend putting it in your oven to heat evenly and prevent any possible deformation (its easy to create hot spots with a torch) The aluminum will expand quicker than the bolt. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1992 300ZX NA 5 Sp (Dead) 1990 300ZX NA Auto 2+2 (Dead) 1990 300ZX TT 5 Sp (Building) 2004 G35 Sport 6MT (DD)
