When I check them using my Snap On torque wrench, click type, they "ring" a little bit when the wrench clicks indicating proper torque (23-24 ft/lb)
Ping ! If they twist and do not hold torque, they are probably bad :-) |
Is your car making the telltale "playing-card-in-bicycle-spokes" noise? If it is not, you might be OK. My car, an '82, was making that noise. The resulting "while-you're-in-there" tab was far north of the $3,000 you mention. Good luck with this. It's way to easy to spend lots of money on these things.

When I went to try my first valve adjustment, I discovered 7!!! broken studs. Previously did not hear bicycle spoke sound and car ran— not as well as after the rebuild by Dan Jacobs though.
|
anyone else find 12 broken studs?

7 broken dilivar studs arent too bad. I just found all 12 of the dilivar studs on my 80 sc were broken. Is this rare? |
wow all 12 ? did you have performance issues or just get the car ? I cant belive you could drive that thing without noticing having 12 broken studs. i would be worried about corrosive exhaust gasses escaping betwen the cylinder and head and doing serious damage ..
