using a torque plate
I was just wondering if the head bolt attaching points in 460 blocks are far enough down the wall that torque plates are really needed. I have a really nice 040 block that I want to hone and ring, but I didn't know how much a plate will move it around. My clearance will still be ok with a clean-up hone job but if a plate moves the wall around much, it may require more material removal than I can stand & still have proper clearance.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
