  • Torque Specs and tightening sequence, Found here

    http://TorqSpecs.com.

    It has the Torque specs for almost every bolt in the engine and transmission. If someone could find the head bolt sequence that would be awsome.

      the heads are torqued down in a torquing sequence, then a turn...You tighten all the bolts starting in the middle and crossing your way out to 40 ft/lbs, then again to 60, then again to 90. At that point you then turn the bolts an additional 120 degrees. If anyone ever needs it it is in any chiltons/haynes manual that you can find.

        Yup its called Torque to Yield. Basically the bolts are made to stretch, and allow a more forgiving torque spec, atleast from my sources. So say its 120 degrees, you dont have to be EXACTLY 120 degrees, 123-117 and you'll be fine, especially with a simple, low rpm, low hp (all relatively speaking of course) engines.

        Cummins use an impact to torque the 90 degrees on their 15Liter ISX head. A degree spec is a degree spec, so I'm not against using power tools when it comes to final torque.
