Can anyone tell me the torque figure for the head studs?
The studs into the case not the nuts onto the studs.
Haynes only states a figure for the nuts onto the studs that you tighten in a sequence with the head installed 7lb/ft initial then 18lb/ft for 8mm & 23lb/ft for 10mm studs.
Is there a figure stated or any info for that matter in a Bentley manual?
I've done a search on here but have found conflicting figures
Any info would be good, tightening these studs using the double nut method doesnt seem right as the thread on the stud bottoms out against the case.
Cheers
