So tonight I started torquing the K-1 rods. K-1 calls for 35lbs plus 60 degrees or .006-.0064 stretch for their 7/16 "ARP-2000 material" bolts. I noted that almost every other manufacturer with 1.6 UHL ARP-2000 bolts called for 75 lbs or .006-.0065 stretch with ARP lube. So I just measured free length with my point micrometer, cycled the bolts to 75 lbs 3 times, then measured the stretched length. Usually only took 1-2 more cinches with a breaker bar to get to .006". Tedious at first, but pretty straight forward once I got the method down.
