hey I am looking what the torque spec for the head I replaced the head gasket.

 

[gyouska]

96-120 inch lbs in at least three steps using a center out pattern.

Are you sure this is right? bolt broke at only 80 lbs

 

[Will Bark]

Are you doing inch or foot pounds; 120 inch pounds is roughly 10 foot pounds and that's not a whole lot.

If it is a 1/4-20 bolt the proper torque is 60 / 80 inch lbs

 

[gyouska]

ok I understand i probably was foot pounds
