Pretty much what we found. One customer (not real sharp) had his block & heafs machined for 5/8" studs. He had a turbo with a lot of boost. All he accomplished was more block and head deck distortion when he torqued them. Actually pushed gaskets out sooner. Tried to tell him, but he was still in his 20s. I remember being in my 20s. Life was simpler when I has all the answers. LOL
