benc. Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I am in the process of putting my 2.5 phase I back together with the new head gaskets, and I have a couple of questions: 1. Should I use sealant on the new cam seals? 2. What is the torque spec for the three brackets that holds the cams down? Intake/Exhaust are different? I did a little research on here for that and people are saying different things, so anyone have a definitive answer? 3. Is the tightening sequence on the Haynes manual for the head bolts the most accurate? I've heard other wise? Thanks again for the help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 No sealer on the cam seals. But by the front cam caps when it comes time for the valve covers. When you got your Subaru HG's you should have asked for their latest procedure for head installation. Order of bolts, torque's, etc. It's a bit of a Mexican hat Dance. If you didn't get Suby HG's you're just kidding yourself anyways. It probably won't matter what procedure you follow. But it can be a learning experience for next time.
