I use 135# w/30w on the head studs .

 

I Have also read about oil on the threads, moly on the washer & nut face and going to 150# on the outside ( longer) studs.

Your opinion?

PS those Diamond pistons you lined up with were sweet!

I called arp. I got the specs.
Thanks

 

I don't use main studs but it should be what ever lube/tq was used when the block was align hone .

I found the #s

Here are the #s That were published in Superford in the mid 90s. I forgot which builder was quoted (Barry Fritz??)This was just a note from Drew to me regarding those #s. Obviously they were a bit low in the corners. I thought I read here about the long outside bolts going to 150# (with oil). I did a search but got tired of it after several pages.
