    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

So I've decided to put the 750 head on

well, I can't get the bolts out with an easy out, so tomorrow I'm gonna talk to my professor about bringing it in and using the mill to drill and rethread. Everything else went together really smoothly, just waitin on the head, and some jets for the carbs. The bolts in question hold down the cam caps

Don't use an easy-out on those cam cap bolts. If you snap the easy-out the head is close to ruined. Use a square, not tapered/twisted, stud remover. It is better to have to drill the busted bolt all the way and helicoil
it than to have to dig out an easy-out.

When you assemble it, use some anti-seize as these bolts can sometimes bind. It is likely that you heard some of the others crack as they loosened, a signal that they are starting to bind in the thread. It is also better to use new bolts when you assemble, so you don't have old bolts with a bit of strain where the thread begins, the normal place they snap off.
