I am in the midst of installing my timing set and grabbed a set of the arp bolts from crate engine depot to use on it.

My question is in regards to the install.

What is the torque spec used for these, the same as stock or higher?

Do I have to do the typical arp install with lube under the flange of the bolt or not?


Many thanks..Phil

the 89in/lbs from gm was to keep from ripping the threads out of the block from over tightening 89in/lbs is more then enough
