Follow the guide depending on whether you use the proper supplied moly lube or other friction modifier.
This can alter the final torque outcome, so ask any questions now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
I used the supplied lube, from my understanding the torque will be 30.-60.- and then 90ft.lbs as the final turn. Have to wait to torque I think the machine shop fu$$$$ up re installing the valvetrain.
Quoting yeti:
i would torque to spec. mls headgasket is thinner so maybe a half pound less torque??
The mitsu MLS gasket is, in fact, THICKER than a "stock" gasket. NOT THINNER.
The mitsu MLS gasket MD349347 was released with a TSB stating it was to be used on short blocks which have been decked for a rebuild. That was the original purpose/intent of the gasket.
You can get Cometic gaskets which are thinner, but i've heard mixed reviews about them.
Yeti with the type of questions you post I would suggest you stick to asking more questions and not giving false information.
As for the torque I would use ARP's recommended torque and sequence.
