There are 3 different length head studs for a 24-bolt 59A engine (8 short ones, 2 medium size ones, and 14 long ones for each head). Which ones go where? And while I'm at it, how much force should I use to seat the bolts in the block? Thanks in advance, Paul

Nevermind, I figured it out (it's easy when you look at the head instead of the block).

After applying sealer, turn the studs down into the block until you reach the end of the threads. If you want to clean the threads in the block, obtain a thread chasing tap, not a threading tap, or you will damage the threads in the old fragile cast iron.
