toynado Regular Registered: May 2004	Re: HEAD STUDS vs. HEAD BOLTS Sun, 11 July 2004 17:12 having made bolts for a living, what duz torque measure? the friction and imperfections of the threads and THE STRETCH OF THE BOLT/STUD THAT is wut keeps stuff together and from failing measure your hed bolts wen you get them toy spec. for 22r/e bolts is .001" of stretch measure em wen you take it apart STRETCHED OR NOT ??? rod bolts are properly MEASURED, NOT torqued ... unless you are too cheap to buy the tool like me some bolts are made to throw away on one use NEVER EVER re use em ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS retorque as the hed gasket continues to flatten after torquing and on my motor that is a hed gasket endangering LARGE distance i would also retorque periodically i think if all owners did this, i wouldn't see all the 22r/e posts about blown hed gaskets not due to overheating ARP's torquing instructions are insufficient and confusing you stretch the bolt to torque 5 times in a row i've had my 22re hed torqued to 80 ft. lbs. with ARP studs you lube the nut/threads first so the stud turning never happens on removal [Report message to a moderator]
