#318703 Hey guys I hope I have this in the right section. I recently picked up a back-up d15z1. I am planning to tear it all the way down and replacing all the seals and gaskets. My question is where is a good spot to find bolt torque specs and I have a 3/8 torque wrench 25-250 ft.lbs will that work for everything or should I get a smaller one also

#318726 I'd buy a helms manual. It would be worth the $20 compared the time to find each bolt spec online, plus you'll use it all the time, as long as you own the car. :thumb:

#318735 Ok thanks teal. I was thinking about reading up on robster's frankinstien build and doing that. But then again it would probly be biting off to much for my first engine rebuild.

#318737 x2 on what teal said, manuals are more then helpfull, i got a haynes one from autozone and it helped alot specially when figuring out where all the trim peices and clips disconnect from, alot of good info definitly worth the investment :thumb:
