HELP installing 00m12

I was installing the 00m12 kit and I got as far as the Oil jacket screw. Well it stripped! EZ outs are not doing the trick. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Brian

Just to be clear you installed the updated tensioner as well as the oil restrictor? If it's still making noise maybe the chain guide (cassette) broke.

Go back and check all vacum hose and electrical connections. Is the check engine light on?

I know that the egr inlet tube can be a bear when you reinstall the upper intake. Make sure that it's fully seated and the intake itself is not cracked or else that could be a problem. Other than that I am not sure. Anyone else have some ideas?
