Hi all,

Im assembling my Model C engine and my manual seems to be lacking some critical torque specs.

I tried searching the archives but the search function is not working right now... so forgive me if im beating the dead horse.

Ive got the crank mains and rods all in and torqued.

Im curious about the flywheel and rocker arm assy torque specs. and any other crucial torque specs I may need tomorrow when trying to finish it up.

Thanks in advance

Nathan

Due to the offset of the holes the flywheel can only be put on in one position, the cap screws are 7/16x20 the torque is 50 ft. lbs, and should be laced with wire in pairs so they can not loosen,some boys use stud lock here.

Nathan,

If you tell me what size the bolts are and whether the threads are course or fine, I can give you a torque value that'll be pretty close. I would assume that the bolts are grade 8 but if you see any markings in the top of the bolt head, let me know what they are.

Its a 5/8 there arent any markings on the bolt but I cant imagine using grade 2 for the flywheel.

The head of the bolt is thicker than a normal bolt head, it appears to be the original bolts.

5/8 grade 2 would be about 95ft/lb yes?

How about the rocker assy?

Thanks again

Nathan

Nathan,

Sorry for being late getting back to you--we were working on our D17 most of the day and I took the kids (my helpers) out for dinner tonight. I see Bob provided a link to a torque chart, but as he said, that seems to be a fairly big bolt diameter. The chart refers to bolt diameter--not hex head size. And the grade of the flywheel bolt is likely a Grade 8, not a Grade 2. Keep in mind, the minimum quality you want to use for general structural work or say, bolting up implements, would be a grade 5. Engine bolts are generally grade 8 for head, flywheel rods and mains. Manifolds and sheet metal stuff might be grade 5, but I also seen grade 8 bolts on manifolds too. Also, the torque value is lowered (roughly 10%) when the threads are lubricated.

One more thing--the torque chart shows values for coarse thread bolts. Generally flywheel bolts are SAE fine thread. If so, they'll have a slightly different value--I believe a little higher. We'll be on the road all day (Sunday)--so wish you well. I'll check back late Sunday pm.

Not to stick my nose in your thread, but 5/8" seams awful big for "C" flywheel bolts. Are you referring to the wrench size that fits the head, or the actual bolt size? I am familiar with 200 HP tractors that only ise 1/2" flywheel bolts, torqued to about 85 Ft/Lbs.

Check it out before you overtighten, just ignore me if I'm wrong!

Thanks everyone,

Eventually the Search function came up on the archives and I found some torque references for the flywheel bolts.

Yea I had a brain fart that was the head size not the bolt size.

Ive got it all back together, hopefully after some touch up painting I will have it running in a few days...

Thanks again,

Nathan

Nathan,
Did you get a reply to your rocker arm bolt spec?
I have the same question on a B. I don't know what torque to set the rocker arm hold down bolts and nuts to.
Help!
Thanks,
Al.
