    I get it! Sorry, read too fast.

    That's a great idea.

        also to confirm...
        the 3 bolt/stud is not always only 8 valve applications.....
        the 83 750E/ES is also a 3 bolt/stud design...i'm sure there is more.

          Yes - somehow I magically swapped bolts for nuts in my mind...

          I think I'll definitely be doing this. Why do with two what can be done with one....?
