I am assembling my motor, and am curious...how many times can the main studs be torqued down during assembly. Because they were on the motor before it was rebuilt, and they are gunna be torqued down for bearing clearances
then for the crank, and then one final time....if the motors not run, will this be a problem?

 

If you are using ARP studs, you can torque and retorque to your hearts content.

I'm not sure about factory main BOLTS though.

 

Factory bolts...
