I was cranking the last nut on the last stud in it"s sequence, when it felt like it let go. Thought I broke the stud, but when I took them all back out, the stud, and threads in the block, were OK. I assume the stud wasn"t bottomed out, and between 70 and 80, it started to move again.
So now I"m wondering- should the studs get loctite-d first with the non-permanent stuff? Some of those studs didn"t go in easily, nor the nuts on the studs. I don"t want false torque readings. Should I run all the threads and nuts through taps and dies? I"ll have to farm that job out, but maybe here"s the step to be thorough.
