Please Read Instructions before starting installation. If you don’t feel confident that you can complete this task, do not start it and seek professional help!

• These instructions only cover the installation and torque sequence/technique of the Head Stud Kit.

• Clean and inspect the Studs, Washers, and Nuts to ensure they are free of shipping damage and obvious defects. q Clean all threads in the block. It is recommended to use a Thread Chaser on the threads of the block so that they are completely clean to ensure proper thread engagement and accurate torque reading.

• Lubricate the threads of the Head Studs and install them into the block. Be sure to only screw them in HAND
  TIGHT. Install the shorter studs in to location #11, #13, #15, #17 in the torque sequence. Look across the tops of the head studs to see that they all appear to be the same length. If one is taller, remove the stud, clean the threads in the block and re- install.

• Install the head gaskets and cylinder heads; check for any misalignment.

• Install Rocker Arm Box, Push Rods, and Rocker Assembly according to manufacture specs.

• Place head stud washers onto the head studs. Then lubricate top of head stud washers and head stud threads with assembly lube.

• Lubricate the mating face and threads of the Head Stud Nuts with Assembly Lube.

• Snug all Head Stud Nuts on Studs, then follow torque sequence below in a 4-step process.

  •  The first round should be to 40 ft lbs (positions 1-18).
  • Then repeat the sequence for 80 ft lbs (positions 1-18).
  • Then repeat the sequence for 125 ft lbs (positions 1-18).
  • Final sequence for 28 ft lbs (positions 19-22/23).
    

• The amount of Head Stud threads showing above the Head Stud Nut should all be about the same. If one appears to have more thread, the stud is most likely not all the way in the head.
