[SEROWMANMICHAEL]

I REPLACED MY STUDS WHEN I DONE VALVES (200MILES AGO) THE CENTRE SHORT ONE HAS SNAPPED THEY WERE ALL TIGHTENED TO CORRECT TORQUE
(50 YEARS IN MOTOR TRADE) WHERE CAN I BUY DECENT STUDS NOT MADE FROM CHINESIUM!!!!!!!!

If you can find them second hand you can use the A plus studs and flanged nuts. These studs are marked with a "Y" symbol on the pointed top. The standard studs are torqued to 42 ft lbs. The high tensile ones can be torqued a bit higher if you need to.

Standard studs available here:https://www.morrisminorspares.com/engin ... s-p1238182 as a set or singly.

Or there are stud sets made by ARP but they are VERY expensive.
