Default My first ?

I've been driving the weekend car around for a couple of months due to me over heating the truck and i'm just now getting around to fixing it. I've been to several Ford Dealerships and no one seems to go back far enough to answer my question. Ok, my question is, what are the torque specs for the HEAD BOLTS and the ROCKER ARMS BOLTS. The parts stores frown on someone reading the service manuals without buying one.

It's the 4.9L 300 CID Straight 6.

Thanx in advance guys.

Travis

Sweet, thanx.

Yeah, no biggie, when you have some time. Now that the week has started, really don't have much time to work on the truck with work and school.
