yah, arp head studs have to be tightened in 3 steps. u have to losten and tighten them like 3 times i believe.

90ft lbs for arp studs not oem bolts my bad.

 

[DarkAngel]

^ i did the same with mine. just have a plug in there for now until i go turbo.

Drill a hole, tap, and install one of these http://www.summitracing.com/parts/PRS-1037/ Its what I did and works like a charm

I was thinking of using one of these from XRP for the oil return on the PRV.

840/850 Series Fitting

823 Series Fitting

822 Series Fitting

But this one is the one I really would like to use:
9800 Series Ultra Low Profile O-Ring Fitting

ARP's are 70 via Sam.

OEM are like 12-16lbs I just look at the paper.

Correct. It was "fun" and tiring. LOL! I didnt want to warp the head AT ALL so i took my time cause it is a important thing to torque haha, i did 15-30-45-55-60 2 times then i did it one more time and added it up to 70.

 

[dacquesta1]

the paper i got from arp said 90 so thats what i went with. i did 40-70-90

 

[Outlawstar98]

was it a paper for the FSDE motor?

 

[dacquesta1]

yes...it said 90ft lbs in 3 equal steps. i had it running today and its fine...minus the bad coolant hose on the throttle body, injectors and manifold gasket lol

 

[XoX1de]

must use the grease provided with ARP fasteners otherwise the torque rating is not accurate. I tightened mine to 80lb/ft, in 4 sequences.

 

[dacquesta1]

yeah i used the arp lube. that stuff was nice.

 

[dacquesta1]

@darkangel...i used the 823 series with a flare fitting. well thats what i grabbed, the person who assembled it just threw a plug in there which is fine.
