oh! like to add drill the thermostat side no more than 12.5 mm & tap
saves breaking in to the water pump gallery in the block

number 4 side the same depth as the others, i think 15 mm but please check

and then tap

torque up the two end ones 30 foot pounds no more

some peeps torque up number 4 side the same as the rest but i dont

each to there own

It doesn't matter that much if you break through anyway, as long as the stud is sealed correctly.

Why would you want to do this? I have run 14:1 cr and not needed the extra bolts.

Is this a worthy mod when going to huge over bores ie 1380 and 1440cc etc etc etc?
