ARP Head Torque

[DonE]

Does anyone have the torque values for their head stud kit?

This is for a 930 rebuild. Thx

It's 42 ft-lbs with oil or 36 ft-lbs with ARP moly lube. That's right off my box of ARP studs awaiting installation.

Make sure you follow their instructions carefully. It sounds like you don't have a copy of them - contact them and request one...

36 ft/lbs with ARP moly lube is exactly what I just did per their instructions.

I spoke to ARP and they also said not to forget to lube the washers, and cycle the nuts 3 - 5 times. This "breaks them in".

do you use locktite on arp studs or? when installing them in the block

I put oil on the case end of the stud.

I used Loctite 262 when threading them in the case. I would chase the threads first.

Don, I sent you a PM.
