landonschmidt Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 So yamabond....can i torque the bolts to spec ad soon as i apply the gasket maker and slap the halves together? Curious as to whether i will need to redo this 1st time project Because it appeared that 90% of the yamabond squirted to the outside of the cases.

Larry's Shee Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Get a plumbers acid brush (used in soldering pipes) to spread the Yammabond. Use a small disposable cup or even piece of beer box to squeeze some out. "Paint" an even coat on one half then assemble. Have to work relatively quick as it sets pretty quickly. Yeah, 99% gets squeezed out, that's why thin even coat, avoid getting it in any threaded holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i finally did a leak down before i tore it apart to reapply the yamabond, and the gauge showed 5.65psi after 6 min. I really had to work with my intakes! I did not know they were so bad!! Both intakes were leaking in about 10 diff locations. So yes as much as its been said "DO a leakdown"! I wouldve never guessed it was that bad. Glad i tore it apart to rebuild from bottom up Sent from my LGLS990 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landonschmidt Posted July 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Well shux.. So after assembling my cases for the 2nd time 2days ago, i just now remembered i hadn't put loctite on any case bolts/nuts. Would there be any harm in removing-loctiting-torquing "each nut and bolt" one at a time? I kinda doubt i will mess my yamabond up by doing this...but figured id ask Sent from my LGLS990 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just for my own knowledge gain..why is it not needed? Sent from my LGLS990 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m671054 Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 I cant explain why its not needed but its not. Ive never used it in that application on probably 10 motors. Never had case hardware issues. There are tons on engine applications that dont use locktight on critical fastners. The only things that might have been locktighted in would be the studs into the upper case half in the crank area simply so they dont loosen when removing the nuts. Even thats not required. If you really wanted to you could do one at a time with no issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BANSHEE HP Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 I loctite the studs into the cylinders and thats it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
