Speaking of head bolts.
I have had a torque meter for a long time and finally got to use it recently.
Worked on a C900.
Did the preliminary torques. As you approach the setting that one sets, the meter starts to beep faster and faster as you approach the setting then goes to a steady beep when you get there.
For the final 90 degrees, set the meter to capture the peak torque. Peak torque varied from 118 to 132. That is quite a range. The lowest torque bolt definitely acted like is was sub strength and stretching easily. These were all 1993 head bolts.
