Flathead Day with Magic Dave! 🛠️✨   Ever wonder wh Flathead Day with Magic Dave! 🛠️✨   Ever wonder why old engine studs can be an absolute nightmare to get out?? Dave is showing us how to pull studs on a flathead Ford V8 the right way using Permatex thread sealer.   Skip this step, and your stud becomes the sealer, meaning 20 years from now it’s snapping right off. Do it right today, and you’ll still be able to pull it clean decades down the road! 🔧💪   Drop a comment if you’ve ever snapped a stubborn bolt! 👇 #Cartok #fypシ #classiccarrestoration #mechaniclife #toolsofinstagram
