Dog-gone it! :lol:

I just torqued my spare head onto the engine.

Is there a different torque spec for the ARP fasteners?

The instructions in my box say 70. That's where I put mine at.

I split the difference. 75#. At least by my old torque wrench.
I need to get it in to be checked out. Perhaps I'll drop it at the cal lab for a quick "G-Job" tomorrow! :lol:

Forgot to mention that's 70 using their moly lube on the threads/ nut face. It was higher using 30wt oil but i don't recall what it is.

i torqued mine to 85ftlbs with oil, just to help my head gasket problems.

I also start with 80 ftlbs on a cast iron SL6, then bump it up to 85 on a warm retorque, after a couple of heat cycles.
