Re: 2000 grand prix torque specs please

It is best to get the torque specs out of the GM service manual (FSM) for your year and engine size Grand Prix.

The '98 GA and older '97-'99 Grand Prixs have the Vin "M" 3.1L where your year/engine has the Vin "J" 3100 SFI. The cylinder head and rocker arm torque specs may be different as a result.

The specs I have for a Vin "M" 3.1L out of the FSM are:

Rocker arms = 18 ft-lbs
Cylinder head bolts = 33 ft-lbs, plus an additional 90 degrees.
