Re: 1929 Johnson V-45 Head Gasket Torque Recommendations

[PM T2]

Pay attention to your fastener sizes. There are a pezillion tables available online that can give you required torque values for any given fastener size and type. Also pay attention to the material that the fastener is made out of, it makes a slight difference in how much torque they can handle. Google "torque specifications for small fasteners" and see the tonnage of info that is available. What motor you have doesn’t really matter, its the size and type of fasteners that are important.

I could tell you what the torque is, but in my tiny little mind, its better to help somebody learn how to do it for themselves eh

Hope this helps
