What would be the torque for the oil pan gasket bolts on my Roush 402R? Thx

Not sure whether Roush is any different, but the Windsor blocks use 9-11 ft-lb on the four corners (larger bolts nearest the timing cover and the rear main cap), and 7-9 ft-lb on all the others.

I suggest to tighten them down gradually, going around a handful of times.
I always watch the gasket and stop when it gets visually deformed a bit.
Are we talking about a cork gasket?

Crushing is good for grapes, not so good for gaskets. Everytihing David said above. Also, do a search on this site. Plenty of info here on pan gaskets and sealers.;) |
