Im ready to put the head back on my 280zx. My Haynes Manual says 55 ft lbs. is this right? I want to make sure before i do it and mess something up. Also if it matters im using Felpro gaskets. thanks

the head should be torqued to 58-61 ft. lbs. done in 3 stages. Start in the center and work tward each end. If you use turbo head bolts you can torque the head to 65-68 ft. lbs. The most important thing is to use a high quality torque wrench, NOT some POS sears or worse cheap model!!!
