What is the stock torque for an 03 head bolt?
I just installed new ARP studs and have them torqued to 125#.
I did some reading and there are many opinions on the proper procedure for installing studs. This is studs only, not a new head gasket.
I changed them one at a time and torqued them to 90. Backed them off and went to 110, backed them off and went to 125. I was waiting for my injectors to get back from F1 so after a couple of days I backed them off and retorqued them again to 125. No heat cycles between retorques.
Am I good to go, or do I need to retorque since I got my injectors in last night and have ran the motor to operating temp?
Thanks, Randy
