Early Model Cylinder Head Gasket - Torque Sequence and Specifications
IMPORTANT: Cylinder head bolts may be installed as many as three times, and then
must be replaced. Replace if any doubt exists.
IMPORTANT: Observe the following assembly notes:
Lubricate the underside of all 14 mm (center) bolt heads and threads with Molykote.
Lubricate the underside of all 12 mm (side) bolt heads and threads with clean SAE
30 W engine oil.
Position cylinder heads, one at a time, ensuring that the gaskets are completely cov-
ered by the cylinder heads themselves. Install cylinder head end spacers, formed
spacer-washers and bolts. Temporarily finger tighten the bolts.
Hand tighten intake/exhaust manifold to cylinder heads to align sides of cylinder
heads. Then, recheck for proper coverage of gaskets.
