gregckrt1 Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 So I when I was rebuilding my banshee everything went together all nice except when I had to put the head back on the cylinder and 4-5 of the studs stripped out and I replaced one with a heli coil and then they all just started stripping out I think it was bc of my torque wrench but I didn't know till the weren't tightening idk what to do should I just heli coil them all and put alittle high temp lock tight on it or if I fucked my whole motor please help.

special06shee Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Where exactly did the studs strip? Just the top of the stud? Or did you strip them out of the case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregckrt1 Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Ok well I thank you for your honesty and I'm looking into getting a stock blown shee and using the parts from that and @special07shee I stripped them out of the case Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastbanshee8 Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 http://www.acmeindustrial.com/keensert_comparison.htmlIf you don't think you can put them in, take the cylinders to a machine shop. They can be saved, but it's going to cost some $, and time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregckrt1 Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 I mean it's like 5 bucks for 10 and I mean I could take it to a machine shop but like the other guy said it will cost a lot of money so I'm wondering if buying a blown banshee for 800 is the best bet Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

90Bansheedude Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 I had a clicker style foot lbs torque wrench awhile back and was converting in/lbs to ft/lbs when working on my 92 Yamaha Seca 2 bike, and the torque wrench was horribly inaccurate at those low torques, which caused some stripping on a few bolts, but fortunately they were not super important bolts. Now i have an in/lbs torque wrench, the style with the arm on it that allow the bend of the torque wrench to move the needle. Some people think its an old style tool, but that way i can see it moving and in case the clicker doesn't click your not screwed. It wasn't even that expensive, it is craftsman and i think i found it online around $30 give or take about 10 years ago. Probably a little more now of course.
