    55-65 ft/lbs. I would make sure you clean the treads with a thread chaser tap & make sure the head bolts have a nice coat of oil on them so as to give a true torque reading. I have seen in the past, head bolts being reused, break during the final torque sequence. If in doubt, go with a new set from ARP.
