#50896, "Torque Spec with Copper Head Gasket"


          

We have two different torque spec with the old gasket and the new MLS gasket.

What are your thoughts on the torque specs to use with a copper head gasket?

Sue ARP Studs and follow their instructions. I wouldn't use stock headbolts with a copper gasket.

Don't think she'll seal with stock head bolts? I have ARP washers to space the bolts up so they don't bottom out.

Any other thoughts?

75ft/lbs all around emoji use copper gasket spray on it, too.

The short corner bolts will be okay with that?

Wait, isn't that what HRC uses? Or were they +7ft-lbs all around...
