So my crank is finally back in the block biggrin

I am using ARP main studs.
Is 80 ft/lb about right for the nuts?
What torque setting do i use for the crossbolts?

Not too sure on the ARP Mains, but Mr. RPI says this about the crossbolts.

Not much help but I do know that studs require a different tightness than bolts, I'd email arp or ring then they should still be open

10 min shower earlier.

Leaving for the west coast in the morning, weather looks distinctly average!

Maybe try Tim at ACT in the morning as he sells them.

yes the studs should only be done up hand tight (I did 8 Nm on my head studs) - if you know your kit number, there is a section on the ARP site where you can plug it in and it will tell you all the settings.
