Per TSB-92-11-003 dated July 1992, head bolt torque should be 80 lb-ft hot or cold, with lightly oiled (30W) bolt threads, washers and underside of the bolt heads. No re-torque is necessary.

Only problem here Scorpion, is the Harmonic Balancer is actually the crank belt pulley. Its pretty much a gotta do it thing. Besides, I like my AC and power steering. that reminds me, I need to order a power steering pump. Rxinhed? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Take a look in the back of the old turbo truck, there's a low miles starion pump back there somewhere I think.. Last I looked they seemed pretty similar..

The feeling of driving an engine you built yourself will be a good one I'm sure. I really hope so, This engine has been such a thorn in my side since I bought the Montero. I am starting to consider selling it for an SR if all goes well. Shhhhhh don't tell the Montero I said that, it knows when I talk bad about it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />

The cancer spots <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> at least the interior is good in it!

anyone have advice on how to get the stuck ones out? Are you wedged in there? Would a strong magnet work? If they're not wedged and just stuck with goop may be soaking the rocker assembly in diesel would free them up <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I got my stuck lash adjusters out. I had to set them in a vice and pry on the arm with a flat head. Not something I would recommend, but at $20 a pop per HLA I am taking the chance. I installed my water pump and timing belt tonight. I still have the valve covers to paint but after that the engine is finished. All I have to wait on is my new motor mount to get shipped here (scheduled delivery is the 13th)So I figure I will have the engine in the truck on the 14th or 15th if all goes well. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
