Hey guys

I need the torque specs to torque down my ARP 2000 rod bolts for my eagle rods

They are in a D16A6

Hope someone has them off hand

 

 

 

 

Just call ARP, but its probably 40ftlbs

 

on my ls its 28 foot pounds.

 

 

43 ft lbs

 

if its a 3/8" bolt head it should be 28ft/lbs

if its a 7/17" bolt head it should be 43ft/lbs

 

I have the arp 2000 bolts that a 11mm socket went on 2 and i called eagle twice and they said 43.....My machine shop resized the journal size at 48 and thats what im no running

 

Let me help you out so you don't ended up doing the same stupid mistake I did.
I belived all eagle rods are the same for the 1.6 SOHC.
Acording to what it says on my spec sheet.
Check to see if you rods came with the upgraded bolt that it is 7/16, 12 point head bolt. If yours did then the torque is 43lbs. NOT 75LBS like I did.

You see the spec sheet is so confusing because it ask you you what size of bolt yours have, mines were the 7/16. and in the bolt itself says ARP 2000 and then it says 75lbs. This bolt was and upgrade to the 3/8 bolt thats torque to 43lbs.
