It's been running so yes. When you undid all the studs I'm guessing coolant/oil has found it's way onto the mating surfaces and contaminated the Viton sealer. If one of the studs was only at 50 ft/lbs I'm also willing to suggest that the head is now warped after being run so there's little...

The bonded outer ring can move on the hub when the bond fails. (quite common on older dampers)

You shouldn't relax the studs for a retorque..... The idea is to do one stud at a time in sequence, undo it until it just "cracks" releasing the 80 ft/lbs torque then pull it straight back to 80 and move onto the next.

Not when you're going fast it doesn't :)

I "make" a LOT of my own parts so can understand that concept but (there's always a but) I will rarely do it when there's an existing functional part available as it's just not worth my time/machine time/effort to do. Add into this the PITA aspect of any failures and your saving $300 could...

Would have to resist the temptation it being so close to the Grey bin ;)

Copper plugs are a secret I'm not telling :evil2:

same as a Celica ;)

No surprise there it was dropping as I got home!

I wanted max airflow but also max sleeper look ;) Was seeing 7.5c intake temps out on a tuning run tonight so pretty damn happy with the results!

My Bumper and Reo mods were inspired by a Turbo A reo I saw naked ;)

I was actually offended when a certain offsite "mod" came here with the intention of baiting some of you guys. Are you going to mount the front plate offset?

I like the switchable system 90t talks about Ian!
