I have a 70 340 I had a valve job done on. I need to know 2 things.
1. What are the head bolt and intake bolt torque specs
2. Are the head bolts supposed to use washers?? (Mine had none on them, but had been off before)

Thanks!!

answer to question 1

Head Bolt               95ftpds
Intake Manifold Bolt     35ftpds

question 2, I think yes, you need washers
Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

The factory bolts did not use washers

It's not a midlife crisis, it's my second adolescence.

I knew I should have went with my first gut feeling that they didn't.
