You must not have read my post Scott since the point of my post was Squirrel's lack of data and his thread can be interpreted to mean bore distortion is a real an issue. You decided to jump in and advance another argument. Stud choice is an engine builder's personal preference and run what they have had success with. I don't have a real problem with running that stud, but why should use them? The expansion rate theories are particularly nebulous and in the end we cannot find strong evidence that the added cost is worth it. Henry has found evidence that they don't control the head as well as he would like and does not like them. I can respect that. You have taken umbrage with Henry's opinion about the Dilivar stud and apparently want to force the man to not state his opinion.
