hi well i got HD head studs put in and a 11:1 comp piston wut should i torque the head nuts to. i remember someone saying that ya had to torque them more b/c of the higher compression.


thanks :D

hopefully ya got the heavier studs in there to avoid having them pull outta the cyl. ( gt thunder Studs ) but anyway stock torque setting is either 33 or37 pounds I think its 33 Ide have to find my book but its fine & even with the upgraded studs the instructions say nothing about a higher torque spec. & Ive had no trouble for years
