115 lbs. with 8740.....seems like a lot I had problems with the threads on the studs and nuts. I tried to help the problem with different nuts, i use to use the standard 12 point 9/16" head ARP nut but the threads keep messing up, i would have to clean the threads on the studs all the time
7 get new nuts (I'm assuming they were stretching, at that time I couldn't find a better grade stud). So I changed to ARP 12 pointed nuts but with the larger 11/16" head for more thread engagement to help, so when I found a better stud I changed. I will have pics on the nuts later today.
