HEAD QUESTION

[MADEVO]

[MADEVO]

The head studs that hold the head to the block? They're all the same on mine :S

 

[MADEVO]

cool how many was there???

 

[AUSVR4]

That's a very good question! 8 I think......

They are 12mm mate, but if you dont mind me asking, how come you want to remove them for? You dont need to take them out to remove the head

 

[MADEVO]

YAY!! someone who kowns what they are talking about!!! yeah that is what i was wondering? So i only need to take out the other 10???

That's correct. Depending on whether the head bolts are stock or not chances are they will be a 12 pointed star bolt so make sure you use the proper star socket when undoing and tightening them :wink: . The three large allen key bolts in the centre of the head dont serve any purpose as far as I am aware of other than blocking the holes made from when the alloy head was cast in the mould Might help with strength and dissipating heat as well but *** knows, I've never had the need to ever remove them :lol:
