well i seen guys do alot of dumb things like tq the stud s with out the heads on like beating the oil pump pick up on the oil pump with the pump on the engine . i am sure you know there more to this??? seeing how you have a shop you must know . any one putting studs in a sbc is not driving it to church there things i do to the deck that will help with the deck . even if every thing is right your making big power with a weak block even a good block you can crack the deck .this has not much to do with the studs as much with the weak deck of a stock block or just alot of power
