I am in the process of rebuilding my engine, after my original blew up. I was wondering if anybody knew the torque specs or a link for various bolts, mainly head bolts.
Thanks

Per the WIS, they are installed wet and tightened in 4 stages. Attached are photos from the WIS. Note that stages 3 and 4 are 90 degrees, not NM.

There are a lot of engine bolts, if you list which specific ones you want, I may be able to list them. Main caps, rod bolts, flex plate, etc.

As an aside, I saw your photos of the crack in the block, but never heard what broke. When you tore it down, what was broken?

On your old block, what was replaced during the rebuild? Were the valve guides good? How much slack did the timing chain have and did the guides look worn? Any photos of the cylinder walls? Thanks

That's quite a project you're doing, unguided without the shop manual!

True you might want to sign up for a week.

It is quite the project, even though I don't have a shop manual I have access to alldata . I will start a thread with what I found out during the tear down. Basically the exhaust valve in cylinder #6, causing the piston to explode.

I was hoping to find a website or pdf file containing the torque specs. I am also in need of the torque for the bolts holding down the cam shafts.


Thanks

Here's the cam bolt specs

This is kind of an old thread to open up but nobody seems to have any info for me. I broke the lower intake hose on my 2005 C55 (actually it snapped from age) and have to R&R it and the intake gaskets. I am looking for a DIY and the torque specs to do this job. If there is nothing available, just a reference in the right direction would be helpful. Thank you
