Cokekid Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 I understand there are 22 Studs for each side on this engine, 13 long and 9 short. Can someone tell me which numbers are long or which ones are short. Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19tom40 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 If you look at your heads, it will be obvious. The longer studs go in the holes where the heads are the thickest. Get a thread chaser to clean out the threads in the block so that all of the studs will turn into the block with all of the threads in the block. Do NOT use a tap as it will cut the threads and you will have coolant leaks around the studs. Use a non hardening sealer like PERMATEX #2 on the studs to seal the threads in the block.

Cokekid Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 19tom40 Now that you explained were the long studs go. It now makes sense to me. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
