    Hi, can someone shed some light on some torque settings. What are the correct torque wrench settings for the main bearing cap bolts and connecting rod bolts for a 1964 300cu in V8 power pack engine. My listings in my 64 Buick shop manual seem way out.

    It lists mains at 50-55 foot pounds with 65 - 70 for the rear and conrods at 60-75.

    Engine is the original cast iron block with aluminum heads.

    all help is much appreciated
