HEAD STUDS - LS Block - Torque Specs ???
QUESTION . . . When using Head Studs on an LS block ( iron LQ4, in this case ), instead of Bolts, what is the correct Torque Spec, since Head Studs don't "Torque To Yield" ?
Thanks, in advance !

If they are ARP, then they will come with instructions or you can also download them from the internet.

I'm not worried about installing the studs into the block, but I am concerned about getting the correct torque spec using nuts, rather than bolts, on the heads themselves..
I think I'll give ARP a call tomorrow and see what I can find out.
Thanks !
