Yep!.......think it's the lock washers, expanding and contracting with that 
sharp edge that are backing the brass nuts off!!!

'67 TR4A shows steel nuts and lock washers...........(I have no problems)

'67 Jag XKE 4.2 shows "special nuts (brass)" and plain washers......(I have 
no problems)

'64 Ford Econoline Van 170 Engine.....Brass and plain.......(I have no 
problems)

I like the brass..........they don't seize with the 'gaff' of 
heating-cooling......

You choose!..........<g>..........

Cheers!
