Question Question About Cylinder Held Bolt Torque Specifications?

I WAS CURIOUS ABOUT SOMETHING , AND I HAD TO MAKE SURE 100% B-4 PROCEEDING....... CANT BELIEVE IM ASKING

I JUST CHANGED OUT MY CYLINER HEAD GASKET, I WENT AND GOT MY HEAD MACHINED, AND THEN PICKED UP TODAY AND WAS TORQUE-ING THE CYLINDER HEAD BOLTS....

FIRST STEP 15 FT LBS THEN TO 25 FT LBS
SECOND STEP 35 TO 45
THIRD STEP IT SAYS ' TURN AN ADDITIONAL 105 DEGREES

I TORQUED ACCORDING TO SPECS UP TO 45 LBS

BUT IM NOT SURE ON THE 105 DEGREES DOES THAT MEAN AN ADDTIONAL 105 FT LBS, OR ANOTHER 105 DEGREE TURN WITH THE WRENCH????

I JUST WANT TO BE 100% SURE BC TORQUE IS CRUCIAL ON HEAD GASKET

ANY HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED......

Re: Question About Cylinder Held Bolt Torque Specifications?

if that's how it's worded I would think it means 105 degrees with a wrench. That would be just over a quarter turn addditional.

Aight

I Was Thinking Same Thing, Bc That Would Put The Torque At 150lbs, And That Seems Crazy....

Plus After Thinking ......they Are Stretch Bolts, So A Litte Past Quarter Turn @ 45lbs, Would Strech To Tighten....

Thanks
