Bgb says head stud torque for 3sgte should ne 49nm. So thats what I torqued to. Just read a tread on toymods saying ARP studs need torquing down to 88nm?!? (65ft/ibs)... That seems a hell of a lot!!! Im tusing a cometic 1mm HG and it occured to me tjis afternoon maybe that why im getting what looks like coolant (water) in cylinder 1. Could anybody please tell me what I should torque them to to get a solid seal? Thinkin cos its a tjinner HG maybe it needs clamping down more? Do ARP studs stretch at all even tho thet arent spose to? 88nm/65ft ibs sounds like it should strip threads cos its loads more than what bgb qoutes. PLEASE anybody whos used them on a 3sgte clue me up!!! Thanks. Chris.
