:DHi,

I'm a newbie to Subaru's and this web site.Can anyone tell me without being complicated what the the cam caps should be torqued to? My book says 70-90 inch lb,which is about 7.49 ft.lb doesn't sound right to me.I'm doing a head job with engine in car.

Also my car has an automatic tranny ,can I turn the crankshaft to line up all the cam sprockets with the tranny in park or does it have to be in neutral?

Any and all comments would be appreciated.

Thanks, dogman1955

If you have a factory manual. I would follow it. If you don't have a factory manual.. go here http://jdmfsm.info/Auto/Japan/Subaru

 

 

you can turn it over in park

:D  Thank you very much for the help Matt. It definitely will solve all of my current Subie issues!!!

They're like m6 size bolts.

8 ft lbs

 

More than that and you'll either strip the threads out of the head or snap the bolts.

In fact. 7.5 ft. lbs. is exactly what I've always used.
