    Question Torque settings

    LS1 flywheel bolts - one use only torque to yield type?
    Torque settings for flywheel bolts would be awesome if anyone has them handy

    Same again for bolts to mount T56 bellhousing to LS1

    Thanks, will probably have more questions as I find things I forgot

    clutch housing bolts 40-60Nm

    Yep they'll be loctited. Honestly I'm probably going to reuse the bolts from the flex plate, since Holden quoted me a rather unfriendly $82 for six bolts so they can go and get ****ed.

    Step 3 stretches the bolts.

    Reckon they'd survive until the clutch dies and I go to a lightened flywheel... ? I flat out refuse on principle to pay $82 for some throw away bolts. Any suggestions on where else to go to get some new ones?

    Yep, get ARP. They are cheaper than GM genuine. There is no way I'd be reusing those GM bolts either, a few $ vs. potentially a flywheel coming through your floor right next to (or through) your feet...

    Ended up going with ARPs after discovering the LS1 flex plate bolts and flywheel bolts are NOT the same.
