Engine torque settings and head stud tightening pattern!

[chris_bramley]

Hi guys

Anyone got a complete torque settings list for when I put my engine back together?

also I need the proper head bolt tightening pattern to do it right ;)

polishing of the block starts tonight! Hopefully someone can come up with it all soon...

Thanks!

Hi Chris
It's all in the 3 litre TWIN TURBO engine repair manual (http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/downloads.php?do=file&id=3) in the downloads section mate.

Excellent! Thanks mate

Though having had a look I still can't see the head bolt tightening pattern... am I being blind?

Didnt you buy ARP bolts, in which case wont they have a different torque setting/procedure

[chris_bramley]

Correct but that came with those studs - I need the settings for the rest of the engine! The head studs are the only torque setting I have at present :innocent:

And of course the ever important head tightening pattern - the studs come with the torque but no more. I think the sequence is the same no matter which studs/bolts you use, as it's to prevent head warping. A mechanic friend of mine said it's the most important thing in putting the head back on.

I can't see that sequence in the downloadable manual, if anyone knows the page or has the sequence elsewhere pleeeeease let me have the info!

Thx

C
