Default Re: replacing head studs

You can buy a stud remover from your local hardware store and use that. They work better than a pipe wrench or vice grips but I have also done them with both. Also double nutting works, You will probably be using new studs so the removal tools don't make a lot of difference, The installation tools are more important. I start them by hand, double nut them and just bottom them, not any real force used here, Then install the gasket and head.
