Re: hey guys need help asap on head torque Interesting... I thought it was this:
1) Tighten all M11 bolts to 22 lbs-ft.
2) Tighten M11 bolts #'s 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, & 8
a second pass in sequence to 76 degrees.
3) Tighten M11 bolt #'s 9 & 10(short ones) a
second pass in sequence to 34 degrees.
4) Tighten M8 bolts in sequence to 22 lbs-ft.
Are steps you guys described in the Helm manual?
It sounds like the steps I described are not enough torque. Anyone know what most tuners use?

Re: hey guys need help asap on head torque The first post and the post right before mine are not entirely correct, the procedure listed here:http://ls1.fbody.com/car/mods/heads/install.html
is the EXACT procedure from the Service Manual. I highly suggest you follow those steps.
