Title: Quick head bolt questions
Post by: Smokey Eddy on August 09, 2008, 07:16:04 pm

Hey what are the torque specs for the head bolts? and what order? i lost my paper work with this info =( and im about to take the old ones out but i dont have the order (to do the reverse). I want to finish this today please PM if you know them! i'll be checking every like 2 minutes

i remember some ludacris torque and then like two sets of 90 degree turns, run it, and then while hot another 90 degrees (or something? but i want something more concrete than my cloudy memory)

thanks!
Ed.

What engine do you have? There are 11mm and 12mm head bolts. And you do know you can't reuse them don't you?
