putt'n the oil pan on the block and the factory manual doesn't really do it justice, what do I do with the overlaps in the front of the pan? Cork to rubber. trim them or will the 200ft lb torque fix this? |

I'm not sure I'd even believe 200 inch-pounds, but it is much more reasonable. Those little 5/16" screws would have to be made of unobtainium to withstand 200 foot-lbs. |

A 100-110 in lbs maybe....I wouldn't even try 200. |

Grade 5, dry, 5/16-18 bolt torque specs are typically about 17 ft-lbs. 200 inch-pounds (what my FSM says) is 16.7 ft-lbs. |

I just put my old engines oil pan on a "new" used motor for my truck, the other day. It was a fel-pro gasket and called for 100 inch pounds, that was squishing it pretty good. I wouldn't go more than that myself. = 2 cents Dietz |
