Default Replacing Rocker Studs

I am going to replace my rocker studs on my 90 with Aluminum Heads

2 Questions

What do i torque them to into the heads?

And do i use any thread locker or sealant on the threads that go down into the heads ?


Thanks


Greg

The studs on 113 castings do not extent into a water or intake port. If heads have port work, check with a flashlight to see if they broke thru. Sealer will be needed only if this happened. ARP studs should be lubed with their assembly lube and torqued to arp's spec. It was about 50 ft lbs.
