Good Day All! I recently purchased a pair of Mopar Performance Aluminum Valve Covers for my 1972 440 Road Runner. The current covers are steel. What are the proper torque values for the Aluminum covers.. certainly don't want to crack them. Thanks!
You forgot the one year only 350 (1958) b engine of course.
Thanks for your timely response, Pops! I will be using Fel-Pro gaskets, as well. When you say, by the book (I know it can just be a phrase), can you please tell me which book? I would like to purchase it, if it's available. Thanks Again!
Sorry Pops, 40 inch pounds is 3.3 foot pounds which is correct for stock stamped steel valve covers per the book.By the book:6ft lbs/40 inch pounds. I just change out my valve covers using Fel-pro gaskets.. I just Snug them down + a 1/4 turn...
