I did, but not the full kit, bought it from TonyB like 2 years ago

I thought you weren't supposed to use the oil cooler after it was split apart. IIRC it doesn't ever seal again.

You can prolly just use Gasket maker.

Had some spare time today, used the spare block I have as a template...


Thanks to Travis for the original idea!

Got to thinking about the injectors and how much power I plan to run, I ordered a set of ARP rocker studs from ATP and got to thinking about the injector holt down bolts. Tim told me that McMasterCarr has hardened metric bolts, but this is as close as I can find...

I hope their harden bolts are better cause their hardened gears are not being treated all the way through as they should.

I need to call Guy tomorrow and see what their ARP hold down stud kit runs as well, don't need to cheap out on little stuff like this.

Brian thats a good choice! its cheap insurance in my mind.
I know others that think it is silly but ive never lifted a cup and im well over 1k hp

tuning plays a big role also, but im no expert and still been good.

there is a better place than mcmaster that u can buy metric studs and bolts.
imo u want high tensile strenght that arp provides on the injectors though.
