Default ?s on ARP torque specs

YES I checked ARPss site. I've never found any specific data. Their site blows IMHO.

I have the flowing bolt kits and will be using thier ARP Ultra torque lube Anyone have any torque specs? LS engine or coarse.

230-7304 4L60/4l80 TORQUE CONVERTER BOLTS

244-2901 flex plate bolts. Pro series if that makes a difference.

234-2503 Balancer bolt

thanks guys!!

im not sure about all the other bolts you have listed but the balancer bolt I was told Per ARP Tech Rep over the phone that if i use red locktight the bolt should be torqued to 245 ft/pounds and if i was using the ARP bolt lube it should be torqued to 240 ft/pounds. hope this helps

FYI when i was putting the ARP balancer bolt in i did alot of research and there are alot of conflicting opinions and information regarding the ARP bolt Torque specs.... i have heard of guys calling APR tech line twice in one day, talking to a different rep each time and getting different torque specs each time they called.... sooooooooooooo i went with red locktight and 245 ft/lbs

I'll check in my garage but If I remember right I though last year when I installed a ARP crank bolt it was 180 ftlbs.
