Inconel studs now backing out
 
For a long time my turbo setup has been fine but now my 10mm inconel studs have started backing out. WHY! lol

first the nuts came loose so i changed them and now the nuts stay tight but the studs are backing out. It is an FM manifold. Is there an extreme high temp locktite available? maybe a need a new set of studs?... I have been thinking of maybe drilling some nuts and lock wiring them. Can you get off the shelf drilled nits?

I duno. what do you think?

Just buy a set of these: http://www.summitracing.com/search/b...oview=SKU&ar=1

You already have the studs.

There is a whole thread about this.
Resbond + Inconel + Stage 8 = win

Install studs with Resbond. Allow the Resbond to cure. I put mine in the oven at 250 for 60 min.

If if you are not already using M10 studs, maybe upgrade.

Who is the maker of your inconel studs?

My studs don't back out. Who sold you your studs?
