[Determined]

Hi everyone,

I'm getting ready to put my case back together from a complete rebuild and I have not installed my new ARP head studs. A couple of questions come to mind;

1. Is now a good time to put the head studs on or should I wait till the case is back together with all the internals?

2. I've read on another forum that "blue" loctite is recommended for head studs and applying onto the case and not the stud itself, is Loctite 242 adequate? How much should I put? I've read that these studs can be bottom'd out and then backed out about 1/4 turn, does this sound right?

Thanks for your time and help!

Alex
