Re: ARP Head bolt install help needed.
This turned into quite a topic. I put the head on NOT using locktite. I did a 45-60-75 as recommened by JET(Thanks). I will retorque after a hundred miles or so. I think if ARP wanted you to use locktite they would tell you. I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing to use it, I just don't prefer to do it. I would imagine that if you were to ever take the head off again, you would have to run a tap thru the stud holes to clean the locktite crap out otherwise you could get false torque readings?
PS- I also sprayed 2 coats of copper spray on my new OEM stock headgasket and then put the head on.
