Post torqueing headbolts on a pan
Posted: 11/5/2005 9:13:29 PM

I am having a problem(so what's new) trying to find a tool for tightening the headbolts on a '50 pan. Every torque wrench that I can find cannot do the job. So, does anyone have an answer?

Thanks,

Hoppy :(

you use one of these! I got mine off the snap-on truck. they work realy good! dont forget to do your math. multiply what it sez on the torque wrench by 1.1666 and that is what your torque will be.

or you can make one out of an old wrench and an old socket. center to center for above math would be 2.0 inches.

what did I win?
