QUESTION: Thanks John the site you mentioned has some really good information, unfortunately you won't believe it. The Honda engine I have is a GX360K1 and the torque specifications aren't listed for this particular engine. Would you be able to suggest another site where I could find this info?
Thanks again.

Answer
Hello Again Brian:

The Head Bolt Torque for the Honda GX360K1 Engine Depends on the Diameter of the Head Bolts Used. Use the Lower Chart at the Site Addy I Supplied and Use the Torque Specifications Called for Using the Bolt Diameter.  Example: 10mm Bolts and Nut = 25ft pds Torque; 12mm Bolt and Nut = 40ft pds., ect. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Have a Happy Holiday Season and May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Happy. Thanks.

Good Luck
