Dad tapped the new threads and put in the new bolt. Then we put back on the original exhaust manifold and put on the new intake manifold from the Maxima. Afterwards we noticed on the exhaust manifold, the Y-pipe that connects to it had an incorrect size bolt in it. This was definitely another place where the exhaust was leaking. Dad put in the correct size bolt and got it tight. Here's a link to see all of the pictures we took today. https://picasaweb.google.com/107049701433976725112/20110712?authuser=0&authkey=Gv1sRgCMT_0fn7wfvfPA&feat=directlink
