uscgflorida Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Im installing a pro design cool head, and installing the new studs but they wont screw in all the way. you can see threds still at the base of the jugs. and the studs stick up to far above the head so i cant us my acorn nuts. how do i get them to screw in more?? I used 2 nuts and back them together and all they do is strip the threds on the nuts. Quote
CMAC Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Good post man :thumbsup: My coolheads are on the way. The studs on my stock cylinders have threads still showing and id like to ask what stud installer to buy-my manuall is in the garage were i store my ban. Once again sorry for butting in. Quote
CMAC Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Oh yeah i sent you an answer on them black lines, still says processing order. :: Quote
bansheefreak Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 turn them over.. if i remember right there is threads longer on one end then the other put the short side in the cyls.. if threads still show you be ok.. just make the end with more threads going up to the head... Quote
87sheerips Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 yea, and backing the nuts should be fine for installing them. Just be careful not to over torque and start strippin shit! Quote
robo Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 I had the same problem, so i just took them to the bandsaw and cut 2 threads off and they screwed in just fine. If you have a cut off wheel for a dremel you could do the same thing. Quote
