Hi,

Can anyone confirm the torque settings for the,
Cylinder head nuts
4 bolts (head)
Cam shaft bearing caps

I've noticed on the downloaded manual it states 29 in lbs, for the main cylinder head nuts, that can't be right?? Or I'm reading it wrongly,,,

Cheers Pete.

The "column" on the chart is noted at the top as being in Ft.Lbs. unless otherwise noted.

Yep 29ft/lb is correct for the head bolts. Make sure you lube the threads and the underside of the nuts and washers it can make a huge difference. I use Loctite never sieze there and on the exhaust nuts.
