I agree with Mike on the air cleaner stud. Garth has his engine at the machine shop being sleeved due to air cleaner stud breaking and going through the brand new engine. A very costly result due to failure of a five dollar part.

Very expensive indeed - sleeved #8 cylinder and new piston & rings. For what it's worth, I was not using all-thread. I had a Mr. Gasket carb stud, which I believe to be little more than all thread.

Get an ARP carb stud!
