MC Head Gasket Torque Sequence

Post by preppypyro » Sat Apr 08, 2017 7:30 am

Hey there, I was looking around trying to find out if there is a certain torque sequence for torquing down a head gasket on the MC? All the info I could find was the specs of 105-110 ft lbs.

I plan on reusing my old head gasket if it come out in god shape as well, but does anyone know where a guy could find just the head gasket? All I can seem to find online are complete kits. OEM was 150 for the head gasket in my area (Saskatchewan Canada)

Any help appreciated, thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have reworded my question a little, but is there a special torque pattern that is required?

I know some engines are picky on the pattern so they dont leak, and i just want to make sure I start with the right pattern, if there is one.

If not I would just start in the middle and go outwards.

Yes, the pattern is in the service manual I think. Head set is about $80 I think.
