What did you do them up to in the end Tony? I have ARP's too and want to put the flywheel on soon...

I'd say use the stock settings of 60 lbs/ft.

ARP flywheel bolts with ARP moly assembly lubircant 62 Ft/lbs. You not too far out however if you did not use the arp moly lubricant they recommend then it makes a difference, they do give different torque figures for different grades of oil as well!

60/70 will hardly make much odds. They're a big bolt.
Wonder what the torque spec is with thread lock then lol

Do not use thread lock with ARPs.

That makes no sense. Some arrangements dictate that a thread lock or sealant must be used...such as the LSx platform, as the bolt holes go right through to the crankcase void.adamnreeves wrote:Do not use thread lock with ARPs.

And Ive used thread lock many times. It just says to torque to spec before it dries.

I meant ARPs for flywheel. The flywheel bolts are captive and thread lock should not be used in this application.
Anyway I am lead to believe that if a fastner is torqued up correctly then you do not need theadlock. what did they do in the days before it. I know it is a safety net.
