    XTREME KARTS XF
    Tweaker351 got a reaction from XTREME KARTS XF in XF crossflow head bolts   
    I know new bolts are cheap and all, but ive never bought a new set for a crossflow and have done heaps of crossie heads over the years. Ive never had a failure reusing the head bolts.
    If it was an ef-au etc I would buy new ones but not an old crossie, unless it was off its chops. I guess you would buy studs anyway.......
    Just my 2 cents, cheers.

    Just a thought, yes we all know thermos free up a bit of hp but surely its not as good as we think........ I wonder how much power the alternator is sucking when we turn our fans on anyway, surely its robbing some of the "gained" hp...
    I know on my cars you can hear the load on the alternator and feel the rpm drop a tad when the fans are switched on....
    Just me thinking out loud

    James DO NOT buy the chromed ones....... I guarantee they will leak eventually.
    For some bastard reason they warp a little over time and just dont seal properly, have had 2 and they both did it.  Even sanded them flat with the speed file, tightened the bolts till i thought they would snap....... also did one on a belt sander and still end up leaking, dont know what it is but they just do it LOL.
    They come with the o-ring and agian ive used the o-ring, not used the o-ring, o-ring with silicone, o-ring with gasket and silicone, just gasket........You get the point
     
    Never ever had a problem with the alloy ones
    I reckon go alloy and polish it up since your such a gun on the buffer bro!
    Just my 2 cents
