What is the correct torque spec for the front pulley bolt for the 13B cosmo?



Since the engine is a hybrid between the FC and FD it could go both ways.



Since it took over 300lb of force to get off, I torque the bolt back down to 180ft/pounds just like the FD motor.



Is over torquing this bolt bad? I didn't remember to check the end float just to check.

The engine is in the car but it should be too bad to check again.

Thanks Brian.



There is nothing like working on 2 projects at the same time and keeping it straight.

The FD bolt is larger than the FC bolt, yes?



I'd torque it to the spec that matches the bolt size.
