MarkGolf 6 Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Hi all,Im about to fit my ARP head bolts but there seems to be a lack of info on correct fitment.Do the rods go in until tight or is there a torque?I will be using the lubricant that is supplied.Also, the nuts, ive seen to do them up in 3 stages, 40/60 and 80 ft/lbs...Can anyone advise?Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
cabrioman 6 Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 the studs screw into the head hand tight then nip them up with a Hex key, and yes the torque setting is correct 3 stages ending with 85 ft/lbs using ARP lube.... need to do them in the correct sequence aswell ..... there is a guide in the Premium members section if you get stuck dude .....

FishWick 21 Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Make sure you clean out the threads in the block thoroughly first to remove residual oil. I used brake cleaner and cotton buds. Link to post Share on other sites
