Are all year LS1 torque specs the same?
Are all year LS1 torque specs the same? Between the Gen I, II, and IIIs? I have a manual and it only covers to 2000 and I have a 2001. Ill need them for rebuilding my motor.

Re: Are all year LS1 torque specs the same? Carl GM UPGRADED rod bolts in either 2000 or 01 and they allow higher torque level. I dont have specs in front of me but i can get them if you need them.
Re: Are all year LS1 torque specs the same? Thanks guys, I mostly just need to know about the intake, maybe heads (if I dont do studs) and the mains. I have aftermarket rods with ARP bolts. Also setting the valve lash on the rockers. I cant find anything on the 01s so I bought the cheap auto book for a parts store for the 97-2000 years.
