i bought some eagle rods used and i need to know the torque specs for the rod bolts.. i am assuming they are the regular rod bolts that come with eagle rods when you buy them from eagle and not the upgraded ARP ones..

 

28 ft lbs

 

thank you

 

i go 33..

 

uh oh i knew ther would be different specs lol.. maybe i shoudl take the average of the 2 lol

 

instructions for an LS rod says 33ft/lbs

 

you ahve ls or gsr what rod

 

if its b18c1 then like your sig

The correct torque specs for Eagle rods on a B18C1 is 28 ft. lbs. using the ARP moly lube. You should use nothing but this lube for correct torque. Over-torquing the bolt will weaken it causing failure.

 

I'd stick to the 28 - just did them last night as a matter fact. Couldn't find the thread where a supposed Eagle employee stressed 28lbs - not 29, not 27.

FYI, these were with Arp 2000 bolts using the supplied moly lube for H22 rods.

 

well i dont have any LUBE since i bought my rods used they didnt come with any and im having my block assembled thiw weekend which leaves me no time to order any from eagle
