Factory torque spec for factory fasteners. These are not meant to be reused however. Many engine builds use the ARP studs (shown below) alone for this reason as they are less expensive than the factory bolt/washer fastener.

hi Dave --

Thanks for the order. The torque spec is 65 lb/ft with the ARP moly and 81 lb/ft with 30-wt oil. Using the ARP moly is highly recommended - it is much more consistent. Make sure that the threaded holes in the block are cleaned before installing the studs. This is all detailed in the install guide we provide with the parts.

Cheers,
-- Chris
