how do you torque ca 95 heads
 

what I mean is. Does anyone one know what you are suppose to torque the head gasket at on an ca-95 baby dream?

According to the manual, 10-15 ft. lbs per nut as per diagram below

I forget how tight I did mine. I wish I could remember but I'm sure I used a little more force than that.

Do those hold the jug to the block too or are there different bolts deeper in? My jug to block seal is leaking oil but maybe I could just tighten something to fix it...

I tried doing it to around 30 lbs and it felt a bit like it might of started stripping. Hope its not. Anyone know for sure what its suppose to be ? I dont think im going to tighten it anymore till im sure.

10-15ft lbs by the book. 30 ft lbs is more than plenty. What you feel as a "slip" is actually the stud moving in the aluminum case.

I would not tighten anymore. Should you bust the engine case....... it will be a dipped in shyt city event.

ya well I did the 25 to 30 lbs before I read the forum.. my bad....at least I hope not engine wise.

As Chip said, 10 to 15 max, make sure your #6 nut is the domed one as in the picture, that's where the oil comes up to the cam and valve gear.

whats the deal with the acorn nut on the # 6..is it really important..i put the acorn on the 6 anyways..couldn't you just put acorn nuts on all of them ?..just curious

It's not important if you want an oil leak.:rolleyes: Underneath it is pressureised oil that can seep up the threads. You will also find one on one of the crankcase studs under the motor for the same reason, it's not rocket science. :rolleyes:
