Cylinder head what am I doing wrong
Chrisgg90:
What's the torque value for the studs ?
Foxx4Beaver:
are you asking about the cylinder/head studs themselves, or the torque of the nuts?
I snug the studs into the cylinder at about 15 lbs, but also seal them in with yamabond4.
18 ft lbs for the head nuts
25 ft lbs for the cylinder nuts
Chrisgg90:
Yeah its studs them selves i was talking about. Thanks for that
Foxx4Beaver:
no more than 15 lbs...or you'll be screwed if you pull the threads....start with 12lbs, and see how it feels, if it feels too tight, stop there.
Chrisgg90:
Well got it built back up tonight and and seems all good hopefully will run it hopefully next weekend see how it is. Thanks for the help guys
