when everyone puts studs in one at a time to keep the stock gaskett are you cleaning the holes out if so how?
i know on some trucks the suds are open to a water jacket so drain the coolant?

 

these motors are not. most people will just pull the stock head bolt out, chase/clean the treads w/ a tap and insert the stud w/ arp lube and put the nut and washer on w/ more arp lube and torque to spec. someone correct me if i'm wrong as i haven't done the studs yet, but will be in a month or so.
