Qikbbstang,
As I was pulling up the last head bolt on the 1st Edelbrock head that required 110 lbs torque. The torque wrench broke loose and I instantly thought I'd broke the ARP bolt or the threads came out of the head. I felt like throwing the torque wrench across the room or at least cussing out some idiot that thought 110 lbs was needed to torque down a head. I put the torque wrench back on it and started pulling to see if the threads were gone. I estimate at about 80 lbs the torque wrench broke loose again. The socket had rounded off inside thank God. I torqued the other head to 100 lbs with a new socket and left them there. After I get about 30 minutes run time on the stand I'll retorque to 100 lbs. I don't want to go to 110 again. 100 lbs should torque a head down. Wouldn't ya think?
