7mgte crank question and head stud sizing.

[IJ.]

Ok the "official" word from ARP (thanks JDub) is the Studs now use a 14mm nut and not the 9/16th nuts they used to come with.

I suspect this was done for ISO Certification but there wasn't any mention of the change over in the last set of ARP's I bought hence my obsolete information, sorry guys.

Well i have been busy with work and school. I came across a real nice 9/16 socket that will probably fit but we will find out on Wednesday hopefully. and for the crank pulley i am getting frustrated as all hell..... and I don't have a pallet.

-pull oil pan
-get a block of wood in there to stop the crank from rotating
-loosen crank pully bolt

Do this once the head is off of I think you'll have issues with your engine stand, and you'll need someone to hold the engine while to break the bolt loose so you don't flip the engine on the stand.
