Torque specs

02-17-2005, 05:08 PM

I'm taking my valve covers off right now to replace the gaskets, and I can't find my damn book. Anyone know the torque specs on the valve cover bolts? And also rocker arms (might as well check em)

Valve Covers are 89 In Lbs.

Rocker Arm bolts are 11 Ft Lbs + 90°. Don't check these, though. There's no fixed rating, so you just torque them the additional 90° and no more. They're torque-to-yield bolts, so if you remove them you'll need to get new bolts.
