I like painting my slant sixes RED. But if you paint yours blue, that's ok, I won't chastise you for it.
I didn't think you were part of the crew. True colors come out.He should ask his son. Maybe they use 271 loc-tite. Lol
Thanks for the input. At least its logical and makes sense. I know what these machinists here have been doing my son included works and they have been doing it for years. Never a stud failure after several applications with using the same stud over more then twice . The machined grove had no impact on the torque. A ball end mill was used to keep the modification smooth with no sharp corners. for strength and flow transition.How's this for engineering:
A .510 stud is 25% larger than than a .440 bolt.
A .07"x.07" slot would reduce the cross sectional area of a bolt shank by about 2.5%. Both shear and tensile strength vary linearly with area.
If anyone is torquing within 2% of failure, they've got other issues.
Losing 2.5% on just one fastener would be fine. Even if the slot caused a stress riser. A good deburr and edge break would help eliminate most stress concentration cause by the slot anyway. Doing the same with a flat, a groove, or any other means which minimizes change in cross section would be equally fine too.
Any interruption of the material grain would be inconsequential, as those factors have a greater impact on fatigue life and crack propagation and not ultimate strength. Studs also aren't TTY and so aren't being plastically deformed. Plus, the grain direction is along the axis of the bolt and so is the modification, so the impact would be minimal.
You don't have to feel sorry for me . I laugh at your stupidness. I think your an asshole. My MO is a lot better then yours you just didn't look at that before adding your 2 cents with all the bullshit you hand out.You seem to have forgotten you posted this thread asking other people's opinions. And when the majority of posters, didn't share your veiw, you get all upset and throw names and insults. We all posted our experiences of why it isnt neccessary, and even tried to explain to you the reasons why bolts or studs retain tension which you clearly didn't understand. At the end of the day, you post crap like this, only to try to impress people, hoping for praise and admiration. That's always been your mo.....I actually am starting to feel bad for ya bud
You should try to be more like Richard. The mans accomplishments speak for themselves, he doesn't post on car forums looking for praise and admiration. You should try to be more like Richard!
I didn't think you were part of the Asshole crew. True colors come out. **** you too.
Wow man you’re losing it. Seek some help
He should ask his son. Maybe they use 271 loc-tite. Lol
This was just a dig from you. "He should ask his son" Troll on. and like I said "**** You" . I have all the help I need its called Humor. LOL "Good Friend"
Who is Richard cranium? I agree, you definitely seem to be loosing it bud!Did you read post #125 by Phreakish? I don't think he agrees with you on the stud weakness. But don't worry My "Good friend" we all see you for who you are. Richard. Troll on. I am not referring to Richard Petty. Your wannabe, With your fake 1/25 scale model photo shopped avatar. Isn't your name Richard Cranium. I should know your my"Good Friend" from the past.
There is a definition of a good friend . If you want to know it I could tell you.
Well let me enlighten you due to stupidity. We were just waiting for the chance to reply sitting here at the shop. LaughingWho is Richard cranium? I agree, you definitely seem to be loosing it bud!
Car Does look nice . who's is it? Can't be yours. Is he giving you driving instructions. LOLHere, I got you a bigger picture of this fake plastic model, I'm guessing the picture is to small on your screen to see the realistic details!View attachment 1715925190
We all need Prayer. But will it Help? That is the question. I think I am actually beyond prayer. LOL.I’ll pray for you. Zero sense of humor. See ya.
You don't present a bad idea....and realize many of us have presented good ideas that most people gawked at OR simply shrugged and continued on with the way they did it. It used to bug me..because I believed it was a really good idea I had...now I could care less anymore.I didn't think you were part of the Asshole crew. True colors come out. **** you too.
I personally think all slant sixes were painted yellow with pink flowers from the factory. I am sticking to that and if you show me a blue or red one your wrong . I had one yellow engine with flowers so that is the way they must have came. LOL SteveI like painting my slant sixes RED. But if you paint yours blue, that's ok, I won't chastise you for it.
Oh I like that . it sounds like a right cross to the mouth in this conversation!How's this for engineering:

They were yellow in HD 1 ton trucks and some others. The flowers must have been an hallucination from the acid.I personally think all slant sixes were painted yellow with pink flowers from the factory.
