Looking to replace the head gasket on my pony motor but cant find any details on the torque specs on the head bolts or if there is a sequence to tighten them in. Any info would be great thanks!

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
