ARP STUD TORQUE ?
The instruction that came in the box of brand new ARP studs for the 6.0 says to torque them to a final torque of only 80 ft-lbs ! !
I've read here on the forum torque values of 200+ ft-lbs for the ARP studs.
What gives ? Anyone know why the low value ? Is it because they are now sending some of their own lubricant to use on the nuts & washers while torquing ?
80 ft-lbs sounds low for a high strength 7/16" stud.
TIA................Gary
I'll probably call APR in the AM, but thought I'd poll the readers here first.
