How much boost will you be runing? Mine are torqued to 80 ft with Fel-pro gaskets and will be re torqued after this race.

Hello Suavy,I should be around 17 lbs boost.Final torque will be 80 with the molylube,i believe it calls for 70 with oil.Not sure have to check it again.

moly lube.

if I'm not mistaken torque specs with oil are generally higher because it requires more force to overcome the higher friction.

just my .02
