Help before i kill myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So i put loctite on the studs and put them in the block, put the head on and lubed up the threads. When i went to put the nuts on they don't thread? Does anyone know what size the nut is supposed to be? The ones i have are M10 x 1.25. B18b1 block / head the ARP set i have is 802-4302. Now also what i'm worried about is that it's been sitting overnight and the loctite is dried and the insturctions say to do the final torque on the head before it dries, Is this going to be a problem? What should i use to loosen the loctite before i take the studs out (if it's ness)

Re: Help before i kill myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Help before i kill myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
^^ Exactly. I think you deserve it for using loctite instead of the arp lube which your suppose to use otherwise there not gonna be torqued correctly.

What the ---- are you talking about, you use lube on the top nut not the threads that go in the block, And with me pushing 20+ PSI the loctite is damn well justified. Next time talk about something you have knewledge in and not just wht you've read on the internet. |

I know that, I have the ARP lube, and the torque specs 70lbs with lude 80 with oil. But that doesn't answer my question. |
Re: Help before i kill myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok so i just got off the phone with ARP and they sent me the wrong nuts.
The nut size is supposed to be 7/16-20 |
Re: Help before i kill myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think you should lock tite the nuts down too just incase you wanna run 25 psi. just to make sure all that boost stays inside. right?
