cgarb, I don't see why that size stud with a stud girdle would be any problem, Myself I would use what you have. There is always a better mouse trap , but common sense has to apply sometimes.cgarb wrote: ↑Thu Oct 08, 2020 1:34 am If you run a girdle with 3/8 rocker studs would that be acceptable with a mild solid roller camshaft on a SBF? probably 220 seat and 580ish open with .640 lift. I know I would not try it without the girdle, but with them all clamped together... I cant see where it would hurt anything? Not trying to turn this 8k or anything either. Just a mild bracket engine.
IF you are using a good stud girdle, a 3/8" stud or 7/16" stud won't make much difference, if any at all.cgarb wrote: ↑Thu Oct 08, 2020 1:34 am If you run a girdle with 3/8 rocker studs would that be acceptable with a mild solid roller camshaft on a SBF? probably 220 seat and 580ish open with .640 lift.
