Hmmm, Brickboard to the rescue again. Now plan on using antisieze to help with all critical torque values.

I'm going to be assembling my first rebuild in the next few weeks. How exactly do you use the "K factor" in relationship say to a specified 70 lb. torque.

Add to the seventy, subtract, multiply?

By the way, I've got the copper stuff. Any reason to track down a different formulation?

I know the Volvo's are tough motors but want this rebuild to last as long as possible. In fact, that sounds like another post.

Thanks Ron,
