rb25 with arp head studs question

[bkt808]

on a rb25 with arp head studs are the nuts accessable with the oem cams still in place? planning to retorque after proper heat cycles.

yes no cam removal required to take head off or get to the head bolts. you must set to TDC however.

use the small questions thread next time

very well then. i curious though. how did you install the headstuds without realising the cams have notches for a socket?

i havnt done anything yet, im still waiting on my motorset to be shipped, going to be changing the headgasket and installing arp studs when it comes in. i was just worried about having to take off the t-belt and all the components again once its in the car and heat cycles are done
