ls7 rod bolt torque?

does anyone have the specs for the rod bolt torque and stretch for the ls7.
i finally decided to change the reluctor wheel instead of waiting for software to be developed.

I'll try to get that for you tomorrow because I can't remember off the top of my head. I wanted to answer this thread sooner but I have been swamped! We have 5 cars in the shop and 2 more on the way. That's a lot for Katech. Plus all the engine builds, new engine packages, new parts, multimedia. Keep an eye out for new threads guys. A lot of exciting new stuff on the way.

20NM, then 110 degrees. According to the assy instructions, the bolts can be torqued three times. However, you won't know if your original bolts were torqued more than once during the original assy. At Wixom, they can get a bad reading on one or more bolts with the computerized wrenches. They have two more shots at getting all of the bolts to spec, or they toss them.
