Classic/Antique Car Repair: engine bolt specs., bolt torque chart, bolt torques


Question
Hello Brad:

  I have a 1954, 261 Chevy six motor I had re-build a few years back & it is time to install in my 1939 Chevy. I am having no luck finding the bolt torques for the fly wheel & the clutch pressure plate. Can you help me or point me to a web site with those specs. & more? Every were I look I only find engine specs. & nothing more...

                                      Thank you

The best that I can do is to send you to the following web site. the flywheel to cranck bolts are grade 8. The cluctch cover bolts are supposed to be grade 8 as well.
