Got Katech rod bolt torque specs?
Hi,
I have the A2236 Katech rod bolts for LS1 and can’t find the specs and they won't be open until Monday. Do you know the torque & stretch?
Thanks,
Steve

I would suggest that you torque and then release the bolts several times to seat the bolts to the rods like ARP recommends.
Good luck,
Steve
