    I've always believed, cleanliness is next to godliness, that meticulousness can save you head aches down the road.

    Your one of the only guys that places the head on block without studs installed 1st.
    The proper way to do it so you dont run risk of studs rubbing on head and putting small shavings between head gasket and head.

    A thought on turning the head studs beyond finger tight: The stock head bolts never bottom out in the block because the bolts are shorter than the total stack height of the head, gasket, and threaded block holes. Because of dissimilar metals (Aluminum block and steel studs) having different rates of expansion, there may be a condition where the studs place pressure on the block at the bottom of the holes that the designers never accounted for.

    • @imoovabull6042
      @imoovabull6042 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      you are correct on expansion, i have seen studs pull out under extreme boost, the expansion of the studs screwed tight into the block was enough with the boost to pull the threads. we found bottom out and back off 1/4-1/3 turn out
      was optimal with some threadlock on studs

    @miatafan 5 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    Torque wrench’s can false read if you “jerk” them, it’s easy to do on the low torque numbers, but technically to get the most accurate measure, you would want to use as much swing as possible per pull, to make it as consistent a turn as possible. Also lube on the block studs will do that too.

    Great presentation. At 10:07 I would suggest a 6 point socket, not 12 point. Even less chance of rounding off the nut or bolt head because you have more of the socket surface in contact with that nut or bolt.
    Here's a quote from Tekton : "For 6-point fasteners, a 6-point tool is your best choice. Matching up the points between the tool and fastener means that you will maximize the surface area of steel in contact, making the tool less likely to slip or fail. This is important when you’re applying a lot of force, especially if the fastener is damaged or rusted."

  • @Midnight_Rider96
    @Midnight_Rider96 5 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    You don't need arp lube on the block side of the studs, they don't turn and affect the torque so all it needs is a little oil so they don't seize and go in nicely. Won't hurt anything to use the arp lube, but you only get a little bit in the package so you can save some by just using oil on the bottom. Build looks nice, good job man.
