Torque specs for the 430??

[tuneport67ss]

I tried the search feature but it was no help. Can someone point me in the right direction for finding all the torque specs for my 430. I got it pulled today and will begin freshening it up with new gaskets and a good cleaning. I haven't really searched the web yet because I figured you guys could point me in a better direction. I would really like to find a downloadable source with this information. Thanks in advance for any help you may provide.

Great thanks a lot. Woul you happen to have anything for h sequence on the intake and te heads? I know all this stuff for the SBC like the back of my hand, but this is the first MEL I have even touched. Once again thanks in advance for any information ou guys have to lend me.

Ok not to sound like a retard or anything, but what is the secs thread.

LOL sorry, I'm the retard, I meant to spell specs.....

Viewing the head from the exhaust side, there are five bolts on the intake side, five on the exhaust.

Start with the middle bolt intake side, then middle bolt exhaust side. then progressively top and bottom to the left, then top and bottom to the right, then back to the left, and final two bolts to the right.

Cold torque specs are
1st step- 75-85 ft lbs
2nd step-85-95 ft lbs
3rd step- 95-105 ft lbs

All based on oiled threads on the head bolts.

Main bearings are 95-105

Intake manifold is 23-28

connecting rod is 45-50

rocker shaft support to cylinder head is 45-50
