Is it cross threaded? It probably isnt a good thing to strip that out so be careful.
Its not cross threaded but it does fell hard to bolt and the more I turn the more it goes in. It just feels hard. Also is there a way to bypass the power steering pump because the A/C Compressor does not go over the header im pulling the compressor but leaving the brackets for the power steering on but I am trying to find a way to install the power steering pump back on.
I would stop while your ahead. Get a tap and die set and clean the threads on the bolt or get a new one and try to re-thread the bolt hole and see what happens. Also try some lube if you havent allready.
