I'll say that I've been around this forum for over 20 years (egad! It's really b
een that long). And I agree with Dave. I was absolutely dumbfounded at how lig
ht just a few inch pounds are for an oil pan bolt. And amazed at how long it di
dn't leak.
I've been using torque wrenches for over 30 years, not religiously mind you, but
pretty much on anything that could fly apart under horsepower, or leak. ;)
We've had some engineering experts compare published torque specs for the 351C a
nd various Pantera bits against bolt/nut data based on sizes, grade and other sp
ecs, on this forum in the past, and as I recall, the results are usually that th
e published specs are pretty much spot on. Good enough for me.

Outrageous
isn't it. Perhaps because of some time spent race car building: -
you
should torque-set everything, except when the number is so small
that
you can't approach it smoothly with a small, in-lb wrench. - you
should
always make the same kind of smooth pass on the final turn, even if
you're hanging upside down with one arm stuck in a place where arms
don't fit.>
I agree- ever since I snapped off an OEM oil pan bolt on an
installed
Pantera 351-C.....1/4-20 SAE grade-nothing bolts are sensitive!
