so i did my head swap not too long ago, about 3 weeks, and i noticed about 3 days ago, my coolant started to dissapear...where you may ask...IN TO THE CRANK CASE! I checked my oil, and instead of oil, i got milk. i thought to myself, where did i go wrong, and it was the MITCHEL ON DEMAND 5 computer repair/estimation program. it gave me the correct sequence for torquing head bolts, but it said to have them at 42 ft lbs....when today i found they should be at 70 ft lbs!! just letting others to be wary of what info they use, so they dont have to do a job twice, especially head gaskets.

Re: wrong torque specs
70 is not correct either. let me look it up (the haynes says different from what the bolts instructions say)2k2 camaro, K&N, SLP whisper lid, Konis, AEM, HP Tuners, Angel eyes/Halos, CF SS ram air hood, 4.10s, Zexel Torsen, UMI SFCs, CrossFire, BFGs, Gatorback, Catco, Flows, and TLC! DONT feed the Trolls! -
Re: wrong torque specs
haynes says 37ft/lbs then rotate another 120* degrees. the bolts instructions say different. If only I could find the instructions...
