Windage tray question - broken stud Hi,
Question regarding the main bearing studs. The bottom end of my LS1 is totally stock. I was installing the windage tray and over-torqued one of the studs, breaking off the top.
What are my options? Remove all the single stud and replace with OEM? Remove all the studs/bearings and replace with OEM or something upgraded? And, what is the right torque spec for the windage tray?
The motor was a takeout from an auto trans GTO and has 40k street miles. For the past 2 years it's been installed in a 944 track car. It's running headers, medium cam, springs, lifters seats, upgraded oil pump.
Thank you in advance for your input.
