Hi Guys.
That's a misprint in the HQ manual. They big ends are 20-26 ft/lbs but the mains are 60-70 ft-lbs.
The taller diffs available are 2.60 & 2.78, but the tall diff won't always give you better economy, if you engine hasn't got the torque to pu |
If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |
