From Gregorys workshop manual HQ-HZ.
Conrod nuts:- 26 ft/lb
Crankshaft main bolts:- 70 ft/lb
Rocker arm pivot bolts ( non adjustable rockers ) 28 ft/lb
Cyl head bolts:-
1st stage:- ( start at centre of head and move outwards ) 30 ft/lb
2nd stage:- 75 ft/lb
Thought I'd throw in head bolt torque settings as well
If your torque wrench doesn't show ft/lbs the conversion is :-
1x ft/lb = 4.45 NM ( Newton Metres) and 1 x NM = 0.225 lb/ft.
