ARP head stud install. 1by1 the right way

ok befor you all start i know the right way to do the job is to pull the head off the car. but im doing the 1by1 method

now i have seached and found alot of mixed info on how to do it.

there is a way to install and take out the head studs.



this seems to be the take out method.

what is the install way to do it??

also some say to torque them down and then re loosen the nut and re torque the nut a few times and each time get tighter and tighter.

what is the best way to do the 1by1 method for arp headstud install on the evo.

i sugest you leave it alone if your going to half *** it and do it that way without taking off the head.
either take the head off or dont do it at all.

I laid the final torque on mine to 85 ft. lbs. You want to use the install pattern rather than the removal pattern. Here is a link, post #3:
