reusing main bolts?

[sinus19]

Can I?...got a feeling you guys are gonna slap me n the back of the head and give me that "you should know better" look ha...through out all of my running and looking for parts...I knida forgot to order new bolts and i REALLY want to start rebuilding this weekend. Also it seems that this is gonna be the second rebuild. Again, everything is going back to bone stock and no forced induction.

U mean reuse bolts for heads? And for the second time?

 

[VPRPWRD]

I personally wouldn't re-use them, and I wouldn't put it back to stock either. But it is your choice and your money, spend it how you will.

Main bolts on crank can be reused! Do NOT reuse head bolts! Good luck

Yea i was talking about the Main Bolts not for the heads (i got new ones)... Sweet, thanks venomous.
Sorry guys, but this build is on a tight budget. Wish i didnt have to go back to stock

Also what do you guys think about a 6 puck clutch disk?

It'll suck on street and be great on track

Thats what ive been reading.. "on/off" switch. Dang, weeelp lets hope i get used to it cus it is on the way. Also is it true that they last about 10,000 miles even if driving like a granny?

I'll be surprised if you get that. You'll likely throw it away before that mileage. CenterForce is the way to go bro. I know budget is in mind, but take it from a guy that tried almost every clutch materiel/style out there. You're not going to like it! It'll moan, squeal, bitch, chatter, and shake your truck on any kind of slipped take off. Ex. Taking off from a light, traffic jams, uphill starts, pulling into lift or ramps, etc

They are good for a few pulls (maybe 4) if you want to be really thrifty.

If you have bought new ones already, that works too.

I change them after 3.

They are coated so DON'T use oil on them during installation.

 

[sinus19]

damn it!... weeeeeelp... looks like back on the look out for a full face.

I had one in a mustang and HATED it. Reverse was the worst and the car would buck and jerk - made me feel/look like a teenager learning to drive a stick.
