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).

Hi mate, thanks for that info. What headgasket are you using and pistons? I'd appreciate some basic specs on what you've done to the motor if possible thanks. Mine appears to have made toast of the pistons I reckon, though I wont know for sure till I strip it. Was making 205rwhp on Redcliffe Dynos machine in Shootout mode.
Current specs are-
Trust TD05-16G
HKS external wastegate
Custom plenum
7MGTE throttle body
7MGTE coilpacks running waste spark
EMS Stinger
Walbro pump
ARC front mount
CA18DET crank angle sensor
Unopened engine (hence the breakage)
