That's what I thought, but just wanted to make sure.
However, now I have another question and it's irksome. So I tightened all my cylinder studs the same torque spec, in the appropriate sequence and I've found that after I followed the correct sequence for tightening down my head nuts, most of the tips of the studs come thru to what I imagine is the correct spot, whilst some of the tips only go about 3/4 of the way thru. Is this a problem or is it acceptable? They were all tightened to 22 ft lbs as per the instructions from Kibblewhite.

Ooh, that question is above my pay grade. Perhaps ask in the high performance section?

Is there a guide like this for splitting and rebuilding the bottom end. I can’t seem to find one
