Always a good idea to coat the threads that go into the block with Gasgacinch 
in case one of the water jackets were cut into when they drilled the hole and 
cut the threads for the stud.

 Break the nut loose from the stud. Chase all the threads on nut and stud.? Put 
the stud back in finger tight. Then install nut and torque to 75 ft lbs. The 
factory manual says to torque the studs but the better practice is to install 
finger tight.

I have removed the left rear head bolt to replace the vacuum hose from the 
dizzy to the carbs (don?t ask).? When I unscrewed the nut/bolt, the entire bolt 
came out ( the nut did not come loose).? Now I need to put it all back.? Should 
I break the nut from the head bolt and put them back in individually, or just 
put it back in as a single unit?? Also, I believe the torque on the bolt/nut is 
70 foot pounds: can someone confirm this.
Thank you so much!!
