Re: SBC Oil Pump Bolt Torque
Not many threads in the main cap for the oil pump bolt. I have had to helicoil a couple of caps for guys. I'm not comfortable with 65lbs on that bolt. I'm not a professional engine builder, just been screwing my own junk together for 55 years, and helped a few other guys with theirs. Easily over 100 engines. Have seen guys kill the rear main using too long bolts. Might want to watch that if your new at this.
