What is torque spec for rocker arm on 6 cylinder?
 
What is torque spec for rocker arm on 6 cylinder?

I had my head off and am putting everything back together. But I don't see this spec in the book. It is an all one unit (no separate rockers).

Thanks in advance

What do you mean by "all one unit (no separate rockers)"?

Mine has 12 rocker arms that slip onto the shaft and the only thing you torque down is the rocker arm assembly to the head.

I am pretty sure I have the numbers for that but not sure if that's what you mean.

On the V8 it has the separate pieces that look like tea pots.
These sort of pieces

I agree on the inline 6 the whole assembly just bolts onto the head. What I am asking (sorry if I wasn't clear) is what is the torque for that assembly to tightened on the head?

Thanks again

30-35 ft-lbs is what I have for the torque spec of the rocker shaft assembly to the cylinder head
