Dee,
My notes from Oct. '96 say the package was marked "MG 35 ft/lbs". I
phoned Mike to verify that this was the intended torque for the rods.
Seemed to me like a rather informal way to give this info. I torqued to
35 ft lbs them using engine oil ( I think). I doubt that my bolts are
stretched but if I go to trouble to re-torque them I should replace
them, I think I can find ARP's address in previous email.
Thanks
Jack
