I am no mechanic by far but i can tell you some of these specs are way off! There is no way Im only going to torque down my blocks main bolts at ~25 ft.-lbs. Thats less than I put on the spark plugs!! Some of these have to be a little off. :shrug:

its only aluninum so i agree with the specs
but yeah mabye double check though

[lakersfan1]

I thought the mains were supposed to be like 17lbs + 85 degrees + 75 degrees?

[pgtfreak]

I just copy-pasted from the manual. So if any of these numbers are wrong, the Ford Service Manual is wrong:shrug:
