:dsm: .....ok i jus got a new scm61.... hooked my licp n other lil random things.....i go to thread in my 4 turbo bolts....and they don't thread...is it because my bolts are sooooo old they are wearing out... n the thread are garbage?....i don't know...im looking at ffwdconnections turbo bolts.....but anyone ever have this problem?.... :dsm:
 
Are you sure they are lined up? You shouldn't use the turbo bolts anyway, get a set of new ones.
 
Take the turbo out and thread each bolt into the housing to make sure they will work. If they do (which they should), I bet the compressor housing is hitting the coolant pipe.

You should replace the bolts anyway... so pick some up.
