    Location of valve cover combo nut/stud?

    I've searched around for awhile now, including forums, manuals, and diagrams, and nothing indicates the location of the valve cover nut that is also a stud. See here:



    Where on the valve cover does this go? I suppose a better question would be, what does this stud support? The motor I purchased (S50) was partially disassembled, so I didn't get to see it before taking everything else apart.

    This stud is a coil ground. There should be a short ground strap that you connect between a coil stud and this stud.

      ^ what he said.

      one goes at each end(ground straps go on cyl 1 and cyl 6 coils)
      I don't always wreck cars, but when I do I wreck them into trees.
