Like the title says... anyone know the torque specs for ARP Head Studs..? I've searched and some say hand tight, some say tq first to 25lb then go 70lbs... some say 80 ft-lbs without the moly lube, etc...

These studs have been used in a previous motor so I do not have the factory moly lube, so if someone could give some advice.. I'd appreciate it..

 

pick up some moly lube and torque them to 25ftlbs then 65-70ftlbs

 

follow the directions with the studs you bought.

Maybe you forgot to read the second paragraph that I wrote.. Something about "These studs have been used in a previous motor so I do not have the factory moly lube, so if someone could give some advice.. I'd appreciate it.." aka I don't have the instructions anymore.. I'll just do the 25pound torque first then retorque them at 70 pounds..

 

if u dont have moly lube use 10w 30 or thicker. first tighten to 25 then 75 i installed arp studs on my integ da other day and thats what da is tructions said if u dont have da lube.
