I had 120-90-90-120 on my engine after putting a head with a fresh gasket I retorqued it to 60...bumped only a few psi I got it torque to 72 lb. 200 psi all accross
But the engine is dead now...Rod went thru the block...hole in the block at the front. And the engine was NA think it was the unbalanced shaved flywheel that didn't really fit the old ZC with the pilot bearing, cause the old ZC doesn't have a groove for the pilot bearing and my pulley old school pulley that doesn't have a harmonic dampner.
