Re: tourqe specs

start with the middle two bolts,one port,one starboard.Then do the two bolts above that,first starboard then port.Then do the two bolts below these,first port then starboard.When you are out of bolts,you are done.OMC uses a criss cross pattern that works also.I find this circular pattern works well on heads.<br />DHP

Re: tourqe specs

Got them on today. Got one bolt that seems to be stripped, got to take it out later and check it. I didnt do a compression check yet but I did put her in the water for a while and ran around a little. Still got to do the carbs. Hopefully the patching i did on the heads ( block )seal ring of all places will hold up.
