What now...
I went down to day to torque down my heads and install my rocker arms and push rods....the heads bolts went fine got them to 110, but when I was trying to torque my rocker arms down to 27 like you guys said my bolt broke off! 
...lucky me I have extra bolts 
......but what should I do about the torque now...is 27 to high?

You have to ask for the 7.3 specific book, hence they dont put diesel information in the regular book. This info is fact. I have such a book in my possesion.

The chiltons I have covers all from 76-86 and the other from 87-96. Both cover the diesels. Not as indepth as I would like but they do have torque specs and many other things. These books are a bit older lol. The one for the older trucks I bought back in 87 for the 79 I had.

i will have to buy a new one soon that covers my 6.9 as the one I have is falling apart. It will suck with a new one as the pages will not be marked with greasey finger prints to help reference the needed info lol!
