How tight converter bolts?

[Cougar281]

No it was to hold the engine from turning over and rotating to the next tc bolt. i dont like letting the engine rotate till he extention/socket hits the block or edge of the opening, with that much extention it can lead you to stripping a bolt head if the bolt decides to rotate up/down away from the opening as you twist. i was holding the bar as i filmed as it only took a little force to hold it form turing.

I have always used a deep socket so when it comes into contact with the block, it doesn't try to keep moving and the socket won't get stuck. I've actually never used that long of an extension to break them tree either. Also, I usually use a short 1/2" drive extension and a 18" flex-head wratcheting breaker bar through the wheel well. Only used the wrench on the crankshaft to turn to the next bolt. :dontknow: There's more than one way to do pretty much anything :thumb:.
