ok, i installed a set a while ago and now i am removing the head again. any one know of the torque specs with the arp lube that came with the studs? i don't remember. i've tried searching but havent come up with anything. (flame away if u think i didn't search hard enough)

 

They can be torqued all the way up to 100ft/lbs. Proper method is to torque a little bit at a time, say 40ft/lbs in a criss cross motion, then 50ft/lbs same method, then 60ft/lbs etc all the way up to say 80ish ft/lbs.

 

i think the recomended is like 65. but most people torque them to 80ft lbs.

i wouldnt torque them to 100 ive heard of people snapping the bolts.
