the torque spec according to ARP is if i remember correctly " follow the manufacturers reccomended torque steps" then finish with 80 ft. lbs.


ARP studs are tested to withstand tens of thousands of pounds of lateral stress... your 800hp car isnt going to blow your head off the block because your ARP studs are only torqued to spec. when i do my ARP studs, i go 26 then 52 then 80

As mentioned, look up your part number on ARP's website. Too easy.
