G60 Conrod brearings torque setting?

Recommended Posts

Alright guys,

 

A quick question as i'm not getting much luck searching. The Bentley manual I have has the conrod cap torque setting at 22 lbs plus 1/2 turn (180 degrees) This seems a lot, even for stretch bolts. Much of my searching mentions 22 lbs plus 1/4 turn which of course is a huge difference.

 

Anyone shed any light on the subject to clarify?

 

Cheers.

I'd go with the Bentley manual. I rebuilt a G60 bottom end a couple of years ago and that went back together per the Bentley manual and seemed to run ok for the couple of years I had it.

Yes I think that's what i'll do. All of the official technical data I have looked at state an 180 degrees turn so it must be correct. I done my rallye engine a few years ago and would have torqued them to that spec also as I would have used the same Bentley manual and all was well.
