ARP HEAD STUDs... I am in the process of putting head studs in my LS1 and ARP is saying that all nuts are to be torqued to 70lbs. ft., the problem is that there is no way that the 5 top head stud nuts (10mm studs) are suppose to torqued to 70 lbs.ft.!!
the factory head bolts are 22 lbs.ft. Does anyone know what the torque spec is for the 5 top nuts?
the reason I am aking in this question in this section is that I am sure most of ya'll use head studs in the secion.
thanks,
Chris

25 lbs/ft on the top 5, and 70 lbs/ft on the lower 10. Of couse this assumes you are using ARp moly lube on the threads.
