Head stud question

[Dragbikemini]

If I use head studs to mount a honda head to a predator I won't have to use dowel pins? Thanks doug.

I think you still need to use the dowels Doug. I have heard some ppl don't use them when doing the Honda head, Predator block setup but it really isn't kosher. The holes in the head and a good bit bigger than the studs. The dowels keep it all lined up. Drill your head for the bigger Predator dowel pins.

I have heard the dowels are just for alignment. I would drill for dowells anyway.
