I know this was a year ago but I watched a video of some ARP specialists who work for the company. And one of the guys mentioned that when putting the washer in for the studs, you should only lube the top of the washer and the bottom of the nut so the nut can rotate. You don't want the washer to rotate as well, it creates a DOUBLE Bearing like action that makes tightening inaccurate. So leave the bottom of the washer completely dry and clean as well as the surface it is contacting

[@boosted_john]

Just finished my ls Vtec build and I owe you a big thank you. I watched your ls vtec head install video over 15 times while assembling my motor. Hopefully we can collaborate sometime and run the Hondas 🤙🏼

[@SPTuning]

Thanks for the support ! Glad we could help :)

[@shane3350]

Good stuff. Been waiting to see this car rip again. One small correction, it's the non vtec B18 and B20 head that uses 2 longer studs for the center. All 10 studs for vtec b series heads are the same length whether they are L19 or other.

[@SPTuning]

Ah yes! Thank you

[@jmont124]

I called arp when I tourqed my head down and the tech me to make sure I only put arp lube on the top of the washer were the nut will be spinning on and not the bottom of the washer. Said that way the washer isn't spinning when your tourqing it down

[@nightdan7096]

That's exactly right.

[@jimhiscott2918]

For those of you who have never felt a block thread let go its a feeling you will never forget. In my case it caused immediate vomiting!!!!!

[@hunterterrenceth]

Yea don't remind me

[@CesarsCarCorner]

Correct me if I'm wrong, I thought you weren't supposed to touch L19 head studs with your bare hands, due to oils in your hands weakening them.

[@evita27jar]

Used to you supposed to wear gloves what does L 19 headstones

[@SPTuning]

Youre also supposed to use Dot approved tires on the road

[@DeMoN_Ek9]

SP Tuning Hopefully all is ok and you can say “ I Told you guys it would be ok “ with a whole lot of power!

[@danielchum5934]

That’s what I thought

[@tonyde1755]

Correct way , no gloves lol I noticed Everyone else used gloves as well (Idid too)🤷‍♂️

[@alltheboost5363]

I agree with pretty much everything you did except for touching the L 19 with your fingers and i use coffee filters on gasket surfaces... thier cheap

[@FZERO20]

Coffee filters. For sanding down? That's an excellent idea if that's what u meant

[@KWC0]

Clean those head studs bud then slip on some gloves. Re-using them as long as they didn't stretch is ok a cple times but fk brotha get ur fingers fkrs off those studs🤣. Btw love the channel and super pumped for this build and ur videos👊

[@kitastan]

Lube is applied to lower the friction between MOVING parts (nut and the stud, nut and the washer). Stud is not moving inthe block when torquing therefor it do not matter if you give lube (arp or regular oil) or not on the threat in the block. Same goes for the washer. It should not twist respect to the head so lube there is not necessary.

[@SPTuning]

Check the arp website, they do recommend it :)

[@tonyde1755]

No they don't ,where ?? Pls add link rn , Thats False information

[@SPTuning]

arp-bolts.com/p/faq.php “Do the threads of the bolts or studs going into the block need lube? Yes. On blind holes use a small amount of ARP Ultra-Torque lube on those threads. Additionally, if the studs protrude into a water jacket, you will need to clean the threads in the block to remove all coolant and oil residue. Apply a liberal amount of ARP thread sealer or a high temperature thread sealer.”

[@tonyde1755]

Are u using arps or L19s ??? I'm totally confused rn

[@FZERO20]

@@tonyde1755 they're both ARP L19's tho, are used for very much higher boost levels like drag racing. You'd be fine using the generic ones and running high boost tho

Had a question. Want yo use aro head studs. I have a b16A head snd B20b bottom. Any insight would help.

[@PopVtecZ]

[@nightdan7096]

PB-Blaster is a bad idea for cylinder lube because it can't handle pressure. A few times rotating the engine without running it and the piston, rings, and cylinders will just be metal on metal mixed up with it. I used PB-Blaster in a fan in my home after cleaning out all the factor lubricant and after a few hours the bearings were squealing. Regular WD-40 is not a lubricant and should no way ever be used as one in an engine. Now the WD-40 brand does currently make lubricants. Was that what you were talking about? I've always used motor oil to lube the cylinders while building my engines.

[@suchi713]

This is alot similar to the ls head? Or are toque specs different for the ls head applications

[@SPTuning]

Arp hardware should be the same for LS

[@joshdane5657]

The ls head uses 2 longer studs in the middle the torque specs are the same tho I'm pretty sure I know for sure 2 studs are longer than the others tho bc I have arp studs in my b20b part no. 208-4302 found the paper they came with says torque in 3 equal steps to 80ft lbs but I did 90 lol

@Armani Frank Instablaster ;)

[@jimhiscott2918]

I don't know my guy. Lubing the threads that go into the block is nit something I do. It's just a theory I have however I think of it as you don't want the stud to turn very easily. My theory you want the nut to be friction free while the threads in the block you want a lot of friction so they don't slip and turn risking stripping them. I don't know? What do you think of my theory? Please let me know

Would it be fine if I DONT run the dowls PINS? I got them but dont fit in the headgasket.

[@SPTuning]

Use dowels pins. Must use

[@nicholasmacausland]

L 19s are not supposed to be touched by you hands the oils in your hands can cause them to break from the oils heating the melt during heavy load

[@SPTuning]

In real world they get touched all the time. Dont worry willl be fine

why set torque to 95 ft lbs then over? why not just set it to 110 ft lbs or something so all are torque the same and not guessing the torque after the 95ft lb click?

Did you use the moly lube on the bottom of the studs? Or only the top?
