Those two bolts are a son of a bitch to install and service because of it. In a situation with no front plate it would not even be an issue. We use a Remflex gasket with them and that might be a cause but I like to know that they are well sealed. We monitor back pressure and so far we have seen a fairly equal amount of BP to boost. Overall they are performing great. No signs of cracking or distortion. Great product.
