OK, don't laugh. I have a Mid American assembly manual. Are all torques done in foot pounds? Book indicates torques w/ an Nm symbol next to it which is Newton-metre. My torques experience has been mainly working on weapons system on fighters in the Air Forces; we only did it in inches.
Example: Harmonic balancer is 80-110 in book.Be the first to like this post

We buy our AIMs from a different source, but they all come from an original GM manual. Ours has METRIC stamped on many spec pages. Correct torque for the harmonic balancer bolt is 60 -65 foot pounds, so the specs you have must be metric. There are many sources for torque specs in general. This one has a pretty complete list: http://boxwrench.net/specs/chevy_sb.htm
