Re: Snyder's Head Problem
I have never taken any motor down, cars, tractors, or machines of any kind, where the stud bolts were left loose. If something like a stud bolt is not long enough, you go the say MSC, and get ones in the spec. range, and machine as needed. If a bolt in something is to long, you don't add 4, or 5 extra lock washers, you machine the bolt, or find a replacement.
What some don't seem to under stand, is, putting in a stud bolt, they have to be tight!
Why, do they have to be tight???
Because, a stud bolt will take more pressure then a Cap bolt, as it is not pulling on the threads only in the block!!
With the stud tight it is pulling on the block as a solid piece, as it is locked to the block, NOT to just the threads!!
Lastly, I would say, if some have to ask how to seat studs, or in fact how the stud is locked in as Opposed to a cap bolt, when you are trying to defend loose studs, you will never get it any way!
