JoshV70 Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 What were the torque specs for the rods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdizzle Posted April 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 What were the torque specs for the rods?For the ARP 2000 bolts I used, they recommended 47 ft lbs.I just found my paper that came with the rod bolts. ARP recommends using the STRETCH METHOD for torquing bolts. Follow instructions for using a stretch gauge. Stretch bolts to .0056"-.0060". If you do not have a stretch gauge, follow these steps using the ARP Moly Assembly Lube. After rods are installed into the motor, torque bolts to 47ftlbs. Loosen the bolts. Torque to 47ftlbs again. Loosen the bolts and torque to 47ftlbs a third and final time. A log should be kept on the original non-torqued length of each bolt. Bolts that have any permanent deformation or have increased in non-torqued length should be replaced.please not part number in quote header.
