I like that MUCH better than the silver crap that I find around here. They do the same job, but the silver stuff gets everywhere no matter what. The copper also seems to clean up easier.copper anti-seize.

I agree! Took me a decade to go through a $12 bottle and works on all high-heat fasteners to boot.I like that MUCH better than the silver crap that I find around here. They do the same job, but the silver stuff gets everywhere no matter what. The copper also seems to clean up easier.
They should be torqued to 35 ft lbs too.Quick question... when I install injectors, do I need to put anything on threads?
Thank you, I was wondering about thatThey should be torqued to 35 ft lbs too.
Roger that. Also, why is it that head studs are only supposed to be threaded in hand tight? Should I not give them a twist with the allen key?Make sure you use an OEM style stat.
I had that question too. I think the point is to make sure it has lots of meat of the threads, but to very much not bottom the stud out.Roger that. Also, why is it that head studs are only supposed to be threaded in hand tight? Should I not give them a twist with the allen key?

Thats correct. It sucks taking everything out but if you’re gonna do this job with the engine in the truck, plan on getting everything out of your way because you’re gonna need every inch of room.I would do whatever the install instructions say, never have used them myself. Looks like you removed the a/c outer housing to make it easier to pull the head?
Just wondering if they only go in hand tight and a Allen wrench can screw them in, why couldn't you put the heads on then the studs?Thats correct.
