Head torque

supramacist · 04-24-2007, 06:45 AM

I went with studs. They went in like a dream. You may want a tap and dye set.

You put the studs in finger tight. When you start the torque process it will drive them in deeper while you tighten. I foud that nice dab of molly on 1 finger tip was ample. Because you want to have enough to do the tope as well.

There is enought to do the bolts if you choose. I have a pic of my studded block in my build thread. Check it out. You may get an idea that I have over looked or something.

I took those pics with my unsteady blackberry, So heads up.
