Torque Specification

[GangsterMD]

I thought I'd printed torque specifications, but I can't find them anywhere And my Haynes manual is only good for fire lighter Can someone please send a link? And also specifically ARP head bolts with GN1's.
Thanks

Here is the torque specs for 86 - 87 turbo regals.

I have no idea what the ARP bolts are torqued to with GN1 heads though.

I used 80 ft/lbs doing GN1's on a stock block last night. I will be going over them again today.

Oops, I meant ARP Studs not bolts And thanks, I was looking on that site and couldn't find it? Anyways so any different ft# using studs?

Studs have a finer thread on the top than the bottom. So do NOT use the same tq numbers as bolts.I will look to see what I used on mine. Jon Hanson

Here you go this guy called Tom at Champion and he recommended 85 ft lbs. max torque for the GN1's.

Here is the link to the thread it's the last post in it.
