Default Studs in Place

I have pulled the heads on my FE Shelby block several times and replaced a head gasket, here is what you have to do on a Superformance. First unbolt motor supportsslide motor all the way to one side then jack up the engine an put some cribbing under the side you are going to be working on. then let engine down on cribbing, this will roll your engine over enought to get the head off the studs. once you get the head back on the motor make sure you torque the studs, because once let it down you will not have enought room to torque them. Hope this helps. Flip
