Head Torque Question I went and tightened all the bolts down to 22ft/lbs (in the right order), and am now about to begin my final round of torquing. Can i tighten all bolts to 65ft/lbs? Ive seen some guides say tighten them all to 65ft/lbs, other say turn them another 80 degrees, but i feel like torquing them all to 65ft/lbs would be more accurate, and easier for me to measure. Any suggestions? Thanks guys
i have a pdf for fbody torque specs...not sure if its ls1 or lt1 but it says first pass 22ft lbs, second pass 90 degrees, final pass 90 degrees for long m11 bolts and 50 degress for medium m11 bolts

Take a look at that. Should clear things up a bit. Actually i just used it to put my heads on yesterday hehe... Its directly off the General Motors service information site that we use at my dealership and in class in my GM ASEP program.
