    Question

    I am getting ready to start the reassembly of my engine (B16B) guys ... and I have a quick question.

    I am going to use ARP head studs and I want to know if there are any "GOTCHYAs" that I need to look out for.

    You know ... anything special or specific about using studs that I might need to be aware of.

    Ohh... another thing ... how much torque should I use ?


    ....hell ... all I need now is a head gasket .. and I'll be ready to start the reassembly. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

    Wink

    Torque the ARP headstud nuts to 71 psi... this is contradictary to the recommended setting of 65 psi, however, in EVERY single case in which I followed their directions, a re-torque was MANDATORY after 1500-2000 miles. Be prepared for a re-torque just in case... but you may not need it.
