Did you get them to bottom? Expand I dunno if you know but you know how the windage tray is spot weld to those 2 thicker parts? Well I drilled them off and just used the thin part of the tray.. and just wound the studs up a few turns.

HI PSI Member 1,586 Member For: 18y 11m Gender: Male Location: Central Queensland Posted 28/02/16 10:14 AM Share Posted 28/02/16 10:14 AM (edited) I called Brad (Atomic) when I installed my studs, as they wouldn't bottom. He told me that I needed to install 6 mm ball bearings into the block, so that they would. happen. Not bottoming the studs may lead to inaccurate tensioning.
