Mike-530 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Hi people. Just coming round to putting the head back on the car now. Just wondered what lube i should use on the threads and under the heads of the arp bolts? Also what are the correct torque settings?Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Should have a sachet of their own assembly lube use that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike-530 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 This is the second installation of them so dont have the sachet. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I'd just order a sachet of eBay, but make sure they are clean again before putting back in. I've heard of people using engine oil but I would only advise what arp recommend I with their bolt and assembly process Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H_D Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Make sure the threads on the block are clean and free of dirt. I used break cleaner and a tiny wire brush.The bolts need to be torqed to 60nm using arp grease Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike-530 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 Ok cheers lads. Do I torque it down in 3 stages like 20,40,60? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
