Re: good source for Sprint Head Studs

I agree fully. There are many other possible faults in combination that might be the source of the problem.trackerjack wrote:One of the problems with threads on "our" slanty engines is that faults are often down to more than one failure.
However, my responses to all of those that are not a problem with either or both the head gasket or the studs will be to replace the engine with the known good spare I currently have lying on the carport floor. I just think, given that the gasket that was in did 15k, and there's evidence of something like half a millimetre stretch in the studs/bolts, it's worth one more go at fixing this one. If that don't work, it'll get replaced, whatever the fault/faults.
