I am in the middle of replacing my rod bearings, motor mounts and pan gasket and need to know what to torque the new rod nuts to. (BTW, 86.5)

Thanks in advance,

Dave

For 32V engines con rod nut torque is 75 Nm or 55 FtLbs.
For others:
with smooth bearing surface, its 58 +5 Nm or 42 +3.6 FtLbs
with ribbed bearing surface, it's 75 Nm or 55 FtLbs
