head studs
Is it possible to install head studs without removing the heads? This might be a dumb question but I couldn't find anything doing a search. Would new gaskets be neccesary?I have a 06 350 short box and am looking for a little more power, but wont chip because of the coolant blowing issue. I had a 04 with that problem and don't want to go down that road again. BTW, the truck is awsome!!

you might be able to replace them one at a time and torque them. but never heard of this, also from what I under stand that when they pull the heads on a late model PSD they have to pull the cab off too. so I don't know if that is needed just to do the studs, but if so then at the point of doing all that work I would go ahead and put some good replacement gaskets on. good luck,
