I got the block cleaned up, very clean, and installed the ARP head stud kit (very nice kit BTW). I decided to remove the exhaust manifolds to make reassembly and getting the proper torque values easier. I followed what several members on the board said and once the heads were installed on the head studs, I snugged down the nuts first, then, following the proper sequence, did a three step torque down. The steps were 50, 70 and finally 90 foot pounds.
I have stopped for today, and will be installing the intake and exhaust manifolds tomorrow. I am going to take the reassembly slowly.
Since this is my first SC HG job, does anyone have any other suggestions?
