Torque Spec's help please
« on: January 22, 2013, 05:07:57 PM »
Would anyone know the torque specs for a crankcase and head bolts for a 1979 340 Drifter?  Thanks in advance.

service manual says 16 ft lbs for both

after you run a full heat cycle,, its a good idea to re-torque the heads

Thank you.  Everything cleaned up and ready to go back together.  Maybe tomorrow.
