Nary a > splash - it's a 10!! And we all know where the PR tubes go... Here's what I do when putting the heads on: Slip the head onto the studs, but far enough that the PR tubes can still slip in. Then slip one PR tube at a time into place and skewer a PR through it so it can't fall back out. Once all 4 tubes are in place I can jiggle (that's the tech term) them around until they are all lined up and then push the head the rest of the way onto the studs. I never thought of it before, but having the PR already in the PR tube helps block the entry of errant nuts.
