Default torque specs

i cant find the manual for my car and i dont really wanna buy another one just for torque specs. i need all the engine specs so if someone could scan that page from theres or something to help me out that would be great. itf for my 88 gt but the motors a 68 302 i don't know if they are different from year to year. also would the head torque be the same since in using head studs

thanks

Head studs will have a different spec than bolts. Whenever an after market fastener is used you need find out what the MFG's recommended torque specs are. They will generally list one spec for moly lube (the best method) and one for a given oil weight (an ok method). Chances are you have an ARP head stud, try looking on their site.
