I have looked in my manuals and cant seem to find any torque recomendations for this re- assembly. Would appreciate any info and experience to help me get through this phase. I am working on a 54 chevy with a 58 235. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,983 Sir Searchalot | | Sir Searchalot Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,983 | Don't need a manual for that. Just look up the torque for the size, grade and threads per inch, on the internet. Read several sites to be sure. If you have any aluminum threads, take it easy boy! http://www.engineersedge.com/torque_table_sae_ftlbs.htm
