Hey, Just want to know what I should torque me ARP headstuds up to in my 7MGTE. And also what should I torque the nuts to when I put the head on? Im using a 1.5mm CHG if that changes anything...

Hi, when you put in the head studs they are only put in finger tight... about 4 ft/lbs. The torque on the nuts..70 sounds about right.
ARP have a great web site at www.arp-bolts.com

It's 70ft/lbs providing you're using the ARP moly lube.
If you're using normal engine oil on the threads, it's 85ft/lbs.
