6.1 370 torque specs

Hello all I'm new here! I'm currently looking for torque specs for a 1986 F700.It has the 6.1 370 4v in it and I'm struggling to find the specs I need to complete my job.Plenty of info about the 460,or are the torque specs the same ??

I had a 370 2v in a 1988 F600 and couldn’t imagine one on a F700. If it had more than 275 lbft. I would be surprised.

Torque on bolts and nuts, not at the crank or rear wheels......

I can move you to the Large Truck forum if you have further questions on the truck.

370s and 429s were never installed in pickups.

The 370 torque specs should be the same as an old 429, which should also match the 460
Do use that engine for something else and find a cheap running 460 for your truck
