Does any body have the Oil Pump & Rear Main Torque specs for a b16 first gen ? I searched & couldnt find & these online helms dont give it

 

to mount the oil pump, its prolly like 12 foot pounds but does it really matter? Thats one of those, get it tight till your comfortable things. I know i never torque stuff like that to "spec". Anything having to do with the rotating assembly or valve train i always pay close attention to specs on those. Oh well do what you wish. do a search for an online service manual. theres some service manuals available for download somewhere on here in some threads. they are like 1500 pages in a pdf format. good luck

 

i figuered that cause of the size of the bolt but wanted to make sure & didnt want to go buy a munual just for that

 

rear main:
6x1 mm = 8 lbft

oil pump:

6x1 = 8 lbft
8x1.25 = 17 lbft

ahh......yes it does matter.....i hope you dont build engines for people

thats the worst statement i've ever heard.......always torque the oil pump.

 

as a matter of fact i do build engines for people and i pay close attention to detail. Never had one fail from assembly error yet. Yeah im sure torque on a housing really affects the operation of the internal section of the oil pump. Yes its good to always follow torque specs but get real man.
