Subject: RE: KR> Corvair Head Studs No, I was the buffoon here. I meant to say, "the head stud NUTS" rather the the head studs themselves. ... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------- [Mark] If you are planning on abusing the nuts like that, you may as well get a "nut breaker" and remove them that way. I don't know what else to call the tool, but it kind of looks like a heavy duty micrometer with a blade on the moveable side and a heavy 'anvil' on the other. You simply straddle the nut with it, tighten until the nut splits, and you're done. You would want to get new nuts anyway. Mark W. N952MW
