Re: 7/16-14 thread chaser
Can we circle back to the idea of using a tap and not a chaser? I understand the difference and get the physics aspect of this in regards to cleaning out all the rust and scale.
Caveat: This is what I've read, but have not actually compared. I thought the thread pitch Ford used for their head stud holes is not the same standard pitch we use today. That's why some say to make a chaser out of a an old head bolt by cutting flutes into the side.
I'd really like to know is this fact or fiction.
