Re: bolt torque

Steve:

1)  What engine?
2)  Is this a bolt or stud and nut?
3)  Use a generic setting based on bolt's (or stud's)
diameter and thread pitch.  These can be found in the books
supplied with torque wrenches.  If this is a bolt into cast
iron consider reducing the toque.  Cast iron can pull out
more easily when using bolts than when using studs of the
same size.
