hi all,

i am changing my head gasket on the LSVTEC (B18a1 block - GSR head) and i forgot what torque was adequate for handling 20psi of boost. i have a set of ARP head studs and i believe we had em around 78 ft-lbs last time, im not sure but i think it needs to a little more this time.

plz help...

 

they should be torqued to ARP's specs....

 

true...aight from what ive found looks like 80-85 ft-lbs. with the right lube..lol

 

dont forget to do it in steps!!

 

85 is with ARP's lube only.
