95 3.8 se K eng code , rod and main torque specs????????????
 

The manual I have is about to go in the trash!!!!! I've built small block chevys before and never heard of torque specs like the bonnies! x amount ft. lbs. then x amount degrees?? can anyone tell me the exact foot pound of torque for the cap screw rod caps and the main caps? My bonnie suffered a hard life prior to me purchasing it! upper intake failure , idiot kept driving it not noticing the temp gauge pegged:x , the notorious white cloud behind him/her , empty radiator ensued followed by cracking the cylinder head and heating the piston enough to deform it!!!!! I'm saving a bonnies life here! i've replaced the timing chain set , crank sensor , cam sensor , upper intake , then it finally ran , :D then it smoked and smoked then cleared out , filled the antifreeze then it began smoking again. pulled the heads , noticed the piston , then pulled them all , noticed rings and bearings! :shock: If anyone has info on torque specs or could even walk me through the way the book says , which is somewhat understandable to me , would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!

Techinfo, specifications. If the spec you're looking for isn't there, post back here and we'll look it up for you. I can't remember how complete that list is.

Yes , they are there , but it is unclear of the rod and mains torque specs.

well i want to know the same thing. i called everywhere in town they said 20lbs then 45-50 degrees i was like wtf is 45-50 degrees. if i was smart i would of checked them with a torque wench before i took them off but i wasnt thinking. i want to know them in excate torque lbs not any degree crap

that was on the rods by the way
