^Plan on drilling and tapping a couple of bolts out of your block. You'll probably break a couple of them trying to get them loose.

It's not that bad! The only reason that you would break a bolt is if you try to break it loose with the wrench or socket at an angle. Make sure your pull or push to break it loose it straight. Otherwise you should be fine.

Chaotic you must have either been doing it wrong or someone really stressed the hell out of those bolts before you go to them.

Yes that is all correct! And you will have to get your O2 sensors tuned out like we said.
