Rocker studs

[Rob Vaughn]

What is the tourque for the rocker shaft studs on the trick flow 240 heads? 55 or half that since they're aluminum? Harland sharp assembly.
Thanks Rob

I cant find anything in trick flows specs on that. I'll check harland Sharp
Does edelbrock recomend blue loctite?

Don't recall but green might be a better choice....

Hmmm, I think the stud just goes in hand tight and the nut gets torqued.

I'm pretty sure that's what trick flow recommends

I know head studs are done that way....you just snug them into place.
