the spec in the max ellery book for a 2h says 83 ft-lb
doesn't sound alot
also u know to start in the middle and work your way out in a spiral form too pays too spray some hylomar on the head gasket for a good seal
you can get hylomar at repco

hylomar as in high low mar


inlet valve 0.20mm or 0.008 tho

exhuast 0.36mm or 0.014tho

also get a quicker responce for these things on the toyota section or search have fun :lol: :D

hey man thanks for that.
those figures do sound low...but come to think of it when i undid the head bolts they whernt ultra tight....small rachet and they where all lose.
