Torque specs please.

[Racemore]

Could someone give me the head and rod bolt torque specs please.(big rods) 200 Merc, Thanks Lonnie:)

[Jay Smith]

Lonnie torque non SPS rod bolts to 35 lbs with Red locktite and the case bolts the same all but the top 2 bearing bolts torque to 40 lbs. On the Hi Per motors just add 5 lbs to EACH torque spec and you'll be just fine !
