Default Re: cylinder head studs

I have taken flatjack9's approach with Ford studs and found it to be a trouble free solution, but over time have changed to slipping a pipe over the stud and giving them a tug in the appropriate direction. That gives me more of a sense of control. They never get very far off, unless a PO put a helicoil in an out of true newly tapped hole. Can sometimes help with that too.
