Got my heads back for old smoky and time to go back on with them. Can someone give me torque specs and tell me how to torque lifter valley head studs. I have a crows foot socket that I think I can get on them with but how much do I torque them to?

You need to measure the center to center distantce on the crow foot and then do the math for adding length to your torque wrench and then set the torque to that setting Probally going to be between 48 Ft. lbs to 55 ft. lbs, depending on if it is 1.5 to 2.0 inch center to center If you want to post your center to center I can go out in the shop and find the formula for the math and do it or post the formula on here for you All my crows foots are 3/8 drive so I use a inch lb torque wrench and then do the math to convert the ft. lbs to inch lbs 65 ft. lbs times 12 = 780 inch lbs I normally start off with 25 to 30 ft. lbs(30x12=360 inch lbs) for the first torque sequence and then do 50 Ft. lbs and then 65 ft. lbs last All with motor oil on stock head bolts and nuts with harden flat washers

I use ARP Ultra Torque and I go to 75 ft lbs for the final pull. Assuming your crows-foot is 2", the torque is multiplied by 2/12 (or 1/6). So 60 ft lbs at the stud would be 50 at the wrench.

Here's the sequence.

I use a Snap-On , 3/8 Drive torque wrench with a swivel head and a shallow socket. Yes, it is FT. LBS. . Don't know if they are still available. Got it about 15 years ago. Small head fits in the valley nice.
