another blown motor thread!

i ran arp studs on my blown alcohol BAE hemi.
probably had the heads off at least 50 times.
they are absolutely reusable.

Good to know. I suppose not all xjs are the same. Motor and trans mount condition could effect the position of the engine as well. There is no way even after clearencing the firewall a bit that i could get the back bolt out on mine. On mine it had the threads above the 12point. Not sure if all are like this but thats how all three of the 97s ive had were.

haha both my motor mounts and trans mount were junk at the time. nothing left of the drivers side. and about a half inch of rubber on the pass' side. and the trans mount was a solid inch lower then it should have been.
