Re: WANTED- information on settings for 3TGTE	Tue, 07 December 2004 22:19

2TG and 3TG share the exact same specs. I like to torque the head bolts up a shade more than the factory specs, I have blown 2 x head gaskets - the first was with the factory torque setting (63ft/lbs) when combined with O rings and 25 psi, and the second was with no O rings 25psi and 75ft/lb (tuning it the day after getting it together does not help). Currently 75ft/lbs, O rings, Hylomar on gasket - 25psi every day - no issue. I have head studs available for the 3T GTE and 18RG which have a 1/2" UNF top thread allowing 80ft/lbs (of course thay don't need to be taken that far). [Report message to a moderator]
