OTAY...today lets talk about STUDS

IMO, ARP makes the best but there is a proper way to install them

first you'll want to chase the threads on your clean, newly got back from the 'chine shop block...then put a dab of oil on the first few threads that go into the block or head....next, hand screw it all the way down til it bottoms...and then, BACK IT OFF A HALF TURN...that way it'll clamp just right and NOT bust the block

yall have fun now, ya hear
