400F torque settings
« on: October 02, 2008, 01:09:58 PM »
Just to be sure: am I right if 2.0 kg/m corresponds with 19.6 Nm for the head bolts? My torque wrench has Nm and M Kgs settings.

Thank you. Am I right if I think that these settings are quite heavy/strong?

*shrug* well the workshop manual says that the torque spec for headbolts on a 400F is 200kg-cm or 14.5 ft-lbs (or 19.612Nm), so Honda thinks that's just right.
