Re: 1997 GSX - DD, RR, and 11's.

Arp's - believe they are just standard though. All searches I read said 85 with lube and then 100 if you are retorquing w/just oil.

My guess is the owner said he just finished having the rings done on the car and only put 1500miles on the motor since or something like that. And from what I was reading you are supposed to check torque again after break in which I dont think was done.

Forgot to add I was thinking about possibly getting a mbc also as I've seen weird readings from that as well on link from my ebc. Logs were posted in my tuning thread where you can see all this stuff happening.

And ive never done a timing job. I used to pay john from lse to come down and do it. So this will be another first when the time comes.
