I am rebuilding the engine on a Farmall H and completely disassembled the block so I could get it cleaned at the local NAPA shop. I took the studs out of the block. Now I see in the parts book and also looking at the studs that there are two lengths. 5 are 6 1/8" long and 11 are 5 15/16" long. Where do the 5 long studs go? Also, I know someone asked about the three washers on the studs several months ago, but at the time I wasn't working on the H. I searched the archives, but couldn't find it. Can anyone refresh me again as to where the three washers go on the head studs. Thanks, Roger

My son & I just finished an "H" engine rebuild. We took all the bolts out to more easily remove the sleeves. The long bolts are located as follows: in the center of the head are 3 bolt holes with a circular pattern around the them. They are nearly under the rocker arms. These 3 are where the 3 thick washers go so the bolts need to be a bit longer. On the left side of the head the throttle pivot bracket is located; it needs 2 longer bolts also. CAUTION #1: Be sure to put a sealant on the threads when installing if the bolt hole protrudes into the cooling passage. (poke a wire into the hole to see if it it bottoms out or goes on into the cooling passage. CAUTION #2: measure the thickness of the head plus gasket thickness and only thread the bolts in far enough so the nuts can have full thread engagement. We had to back some bolts outa little when the nut only had 3/4 of the thread used. Experience, you know!!
Check my posting a couple days ago regarding rocker arm service, you want them to work well.

Wayne, Thanks for the reply. Your Caution #2 I have experienced when I put the head on my MD several years ago. Thanks for reminding me again as I may have not remembered to measure the stud height. Roger

Really all you have to do is look at the head and see where the higher or raised parts of the head are. then put them all in and put your head on and if they don't all peak throught then rearrange them. i took the head on and off mine about 4 times till i got it just right. goodluck.
