    Cylinder head torque spec

    I just got my head back from the machine shop (f22a1). Noticed he used an impact on my cam gear when reassembling. Is there a specific torque spec for it? Ive looked everywhere so if you can help I appreciate it.

    And also does it matter which direction I turn it to get it back to TDC, Im assuming clockwise. THANKS

    I think the engine rotates counter clockwise, right? I would turn it whatever direction that is.

      Our motors turn counterclockwise. That is why we can't use the starter trick to get our crank pulley off. OP, I won't be able to give you a torque number off hand but I'm almost positive it is in the torque thread.

        I want to say the spec is somewhere from 200 to 300 newton meters. "Good and tight" always seems to do the trick for me; "until the impact gun stops doing anything" is essentially equivalent.

        From wildBill83's link:
        Crankshaft Pulley Screw >> 162 lb-ft
        And from a link from that page:
        TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
        Application Ft. Lbs. (N.m)
        "Crankshaft Pulley Bolt 184 (250)"
        This latter is the one I remember when doing it myself.

          Both straight from my Helm's manual:
          F22A CAMSHAFT pulley bolt 27 lb-ft/ 38 Nm
          F22A CRANKSHAFT pulley bolt 159 lb-ft/ 220Nm

            The cylinder head is still out of the car. When I got the head back the pulley was not on the TDC mark it was when taken out ("up" mark facing up and both lines lined up with the walls) I assume I need to put the pulley back to the TDC before putting it back on the block. If I turn the camshaft pulley bolt counterclockwise to do so the bolt loosens.

              Is there a reason you are giving me the crankshaft torque specs?

                Because this is the Internet. Hah, my bad there!

                  You can turn it clockwise or counter until the head is on the block.
