Title: Alu case vs. Mag case - torque specs? Post by: jamiep_jamiep on March 09, 2012, 15:57:00 pm Just buttoned up my short block but am now wondering.... I have tightened it all the through bolts and case hardware to the torque specs for a magnesium case, but I am running a CB/A/linea alu case - is there a difference to the torque settings?
Thanks Jamie Title: Re: Alu case vs. Mag case - torque specs? Post by: dannyboy on March 09, 2012, 20:08:46 pm dunno m8 but its great news that the engine is getting there 8)
