Head Stud Torque Specs?
Ok here's my ordeal!
I installed a Edelbrock header about 6 months ago and I cross threaded one of the head studs. (Confirmed today!)Part #19
I'm going to replace the stock ones with ARP's, what is the proper torque specs on the nuts?

Re: Head Stud Torque Specs? (Luserkid)
Thanks for the quick reply
I checked the ARP website and cannot find a head stud, can I use any of the "Universal " ones? Which can be found under <U>Header bolts & studs</U> I know I should just call ARP Tech support and ask, just wanted to know if anyone has replaced these and can offer some advise or even suggestions.
Thanks in advance!

15 pounds for all that size stud can handle without snapping or striping. i go by the size of the bolt and to what it can handle, always rember to torque the bolts twice because they do strech

I think I'll try this method since I went by what the Haynes manual said and now I have two stripped studs.
