Main Bearing nuts 80 to 90 ft lb
Connecting rod castellated nuts 35 to 40 ft lb Connecting rod self locking nuts 45 to 50 ft lb cylinder heads cast iron 50 to 55 ft lb cylinder heads aluminium 35 to 40 ft lb flywheel cap screws 65 to 70ft lb fly wheel self locking screws 80 ft lb spark plugs cast iron heads 24 to 28 ft lb spark plugs aly heads 20 to 24 ft lb I took this from a scientific publications workshop manual (32 to 48). I know some flat head v8s have nuts and studs on the main bearing caps while others used bolts. I cant remember if the figures are the same, so you need to investigate further. This book is good in that as a post war publication it covers well, (for examples) the carb and clutch rebuilds along with interchange of parts. etc not found in Ford publications. I have bought parts from James Saccoccio of Gotham Auto parts in New York (00 1 718 878 3699) and have had great results from him (and also from Van Pelts)
