Re: [Chevelle-list] torque ftlbs.

The 454 didn't appear until 1970.    I would say you should go with the 105 torque number.   Bill Vander Werf   ----- Original Message ----- From: Jimmy C.

I'm going to pull the main caps to check the bearings. the chiltons says to torque them to 105ft.lbs  then it has a foot note that if its a 1966-67 4 bolt its 115ftlbs, 1966-68  , 2 bolt-95 ftlbs. I am not sure what year the motor is, would it be safe to assume my motors main caps should be torqued to 105 ft lbs ? Jimmy C.
