Smile head bolt torque

I posted the head bolt question on FFR site for Gordon Levy and this is his response:

With stock bolt, 75#. With ARP bolts it should be 80-85# with arp moly on the threads or 110# with 30w oil on the threads.


I use a industrial grade non hardening sealant, I don't remember the name. I'm sure the part store sell sealant for head bolts.

Glad to see this thread still provides information for those in need.
