you guys have never worked on a mod motor have you? the stud will hit the inner structure before it clears the block.

Even with bolts instead of studs its a pain in the ass to remove the heads with the engine in the car. Especially the LH side, removing the hydraboost system and loosening the brake pedal just to get the damn cam cover off
