Out od curiosity whats the torque on head bolts
These things are tight, I work out and need an extension on a breaker bar to break these head bolts. They laugh at my 150psi impact gun. Whats exactly is the torque rating, Battleship?

The bolts are so long that the torsional twist absorbs the impact pulse without ever applying enough torque at the bottom of the bolt. Breaker bar with cheater is my weapon of choice.
