Tony240ZT Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 Usually retorque after 2 weeks or 500 miles or so. Probably wouldn't hurt to do it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 I've got a 76 NA L6 that had head work done and turbo bolts installed about 20k miles ago and was wondering when I should retorque the head? I know to loosen first but how much? I guess I should use the removal and tightening sequence in the FSM. I had a coolant leak at the #6 cylinder and that's why I redid the top end. Thanks.

David K Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 probably doesnt hurt to do it whenever you have the valve cover off either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
