Default KRE d-ports

I'm looking for feed back from anyone that has used stud girdles on KRE aluminum d-port heads. Feel free to PM me if you want to avoid the cesspool.

It’s not a bad idea with any Aluminum head if you have valve covers that are tall enough.

Have you ever used a stud girdle on a pair of KRE aluminum d-ports?
