SBC Oil Pump Bolt Torque

Dave Gantz · 03-12-2016, 10:25 AM

I will check the wrench. It's a Snap On, I guess I could give it to the local Snap On guy for calibration. It's never given me any issues, and I had just torqued the rods previous to "torquing" the pump. But, anything can happen.
I'll try 50# oiled, when I get the new pump.
Thanks for the advice on the align honing. It's in a work van.

Last time I sent my Snapon torque wrench for 'recalibration" it was a lot more pricey than I thought it should be. I'd just find a couple of friends with wrenches and compare torque some bolts. ARP used to ck your wrench for free at national events.
