just make sure for the love of god u fully drill out the old threads. i sent my hubs off to have the work done, and somehow 1 of the holes was missed, and a stud was pressed in with thread still in place. result, 1 cracked hub 
for such a cheap and simple job, it dont half make a world of difference though. no more fighting to line up bolts thru constantly spinning brake discs, and fighting to hold a wheel in place whilst u try and find all the bolts lol

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
why is having studs better than having the normal set up?
i can see what RSandy is saying it would make it a lot easyer lol just wandered if there was another reason.

Rather than pressing the studs in, you can just do a nut up on them to pull them into place i think...
Be careful when drilling them out, you can't go too wrong as the drill will follow the thread hole, but make sure it doesnt wander off and go thru on the wonk.

I am aware of it, but havn't tried it. Come the summer i'll want afew bits cleaned and degreased so i'll give it a go - what program's best lol? I don't imagine the "eco-wash" program is much use for engine parts it barely cleans off last nights ruby murray!

The dishwasher isn't any good for ali heads i find, great for blocks tho, but seriously WAIT UNTIL THE MISSUS IS OUT!
The hotter the cycle the better, just get rid of any degreaser etc first as it stinks enough to get you in trouble when she's back!
