Wow never knew this at all! Wow I wanted to do studs awhile ago and was thinking this was a drop in and go kinda deal like my buds Dmax.

i had my dad mill the rocker pedistals down when i did mine the reason you need to have this done is becuase at the lengh they are they have maxium strength and some modificaion is required to make them fit but do not remove any material af the studs themselves this is bad practice and weakens the studs
|
i got the rockers at the shop now its 80$ and taks 4 days no big deal
that new 97 head i got is there too getting ported and polished :rocking: getting performance valves and springs:rocking: so heres this the hole stud pisses me off the seller should state clearly that (this product will require matching of the block or head) so that way the guy on a limited budget (aka me) doesn't get his shit apart and have to spend another 80$ or who knows how much and if they want to do it in a weekend and its there only rig they dont have to walk to work on Monday |

it'd be nice if they told you that kind of stuff in the description of the product rather than the directions to it. i've seen the 60lb springs around havent seen the valves, must be your machine shop is hookin you up. are they opening up the diameter of the valve? or are they just a different material?

i had to bottom tap my block for the studs
|
ya i just think they should tell you this when bought
oh and iam thinking about doing a right up about the studs, head gasket, porting, syncro replacement (getrag), and engine instlation and removle what do yall think? |
go for it bud; the more pics the better :U: and payin the tab and not askin questions isnt always a good thing bud... my bro in law got ripped off like 7 years ago and is just finding out now while i tore his 302 down for him and refreshed it before we dropped it in his 66 mustang; we're thinking the guy pocketed all the good parts and chucked second hand stuff he had layin around the machine shop into the engine. all he really did was punch it .030 over and did a crappy job at that... out of round and never matched piston to bore so the skirts drag like a mother when its warm; just sayin... sometimes being so laxed isnt always a good thing; atleast ask to see the old parts
|
i know the guy tho but that aint a bad idea
|
not sayin to not trust him... when the days done... you gotta realise most people are only looking out for number one anymore
