Installing head studs in a 59L
I have installed NOS head studs in the 59L block. When I go to trial fit the aluminum afermarket head before assembly it can be pain to slide them over the studs to the deck. I used Permatex #2 on the stud threads into the block, and graphite based anti seize on the studs themselves. It almost seems that some of the studs may not be at exactly right angle to the deck which causing some interference. It seems I had a similar issue with the last set of heads I installed on a 59L a few years ago. Any suggestions from experience ?
