Screw torque readings, just use a 1/2" impact and let it hammer for a few seconds!


haha j/k whats up Glenn?

a impact gun may under tighten the bolts and not crush the gasket. i personally would prefer something more gentle such as a 36" breaker bar with a 6 foot long steel pipe slid over it. this of couse is after applying arp thread lubricant on the threads :biggrin:

Good idea. THEN use the 1/2 impact just to be safe.

OK, I just followed your procedure, but didn't think about torquing sequence. Should I go back and do like every other bolt, or an X pattern?

If you get confused, just leave the pan off, it will be fine. :biggrin:
